To make Lentil and Vegetable Spring Rolls, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 2 spring roll wrappers
- 1/4 cup cooked lentils
- 1/4 cup shredded carrots
- 1/4 cup shredded cabbage
- 1/4 cup sliced bell peppers
- 1/4 cup chopped scallions
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water
- Oil for frying
To start, mix together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic in a small bowl. In a separate bowl, mix together the cornstarch and water to make a slurry.
In a large skillet or wok, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, cabbage, bell peppers, and scallions, and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened. Add the cooked lentils and the soy sauce mixture, and stir-fry for another minute or two until everything is well combined.
Remove the skillet from the heat and let the filling cool for a few minutes. To assemble the spring rolls, lay a wrapper on a clean surface and spoon a few tablespoons of the filling onto the bottom third of the wrapper. Fold the sides of the wrapper in towards the center, then roll the wrapper up tightly from the bottom to the top. Use the cornstarch slurry to seal the edges of the wrapper. Repeat with the remaining wrapper and filling.
Heat a few inches of oil in a deep skillet or pot over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the spring rolls and fry for 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Remove the spring rolls from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
