Spring Rolls originated from China, usually eaten during spring festivals, as the new ingredients are used in this recipe are available as soon as spring appears. In China, they welcomed this dish with both hands as they thought of it as a change from the eating preserved food for the long winter months.  Mostly spring rolls are savoury and prepared with spring vegetables such as cabbage, carrots and spring onions.

In India, Indo-Chinese cuisine is hugely popular, people had taken inspiration from the Chinese cuisine and adapted taste to suit the Indian palette and is now available in most Indian restaurants. So obviously, spices and spicy sauce are included in the recipe.

Maybe I am so late to post a spring roll recipe on my space, well better late than never! There was a reason behind why I didn't post the recipe of spring rolls here although I knew how to make it. My both children weren't so hot about this dish until I recently made Indo-Chinese thali and as part of the thali, I thought of making Baked Sesame Vegetable Spring Rolls once again, and both children and husband were so happy so I thought now it's a right time to give these beauties a proper place on my blog.

Cornflour slurry 

2 tbsp. oil

100g julienne  carrots

100g shredded cabbage

50g courgette spaghetti

1/2 bunch spring onion cut lengthwise

1 small onion cut lengthwise

1 tbsp. minced ginger-garlic 

1 tbsp. sesame or peanut oil

2 tbsp. sesame seeds

1 tbsp. dark soy sauce

1 tbsp. schezwan sauce

1 tbsp. sweet chilli sauce

1/2 tsp. chinese five spice powder

Salt to taste

1 tbsp. freshly chopped coriander 

instructions:

Heat a wok for a couple of minutes then add 1 tbsp. oil.

Once oil heated add ginger-garlic, sesame seeds and plain onion.

Saute for a couple of minutes, add carrots, cabbage and courgette. 

Stir-fry veggies for 3 minutes on a high heat, then add five spice powder and all the sauces.

Add a little salt and mix everything well.

Turn off the heat and add coriander leaves.

Leave it to cool.

Make Spring Rolls

Preheat the oven to gas mark 6-7.

Place a one filo or spring roll pastry on a worktop in the shape of a diamond.

Put the one tbsp. of filling in the lower centre of the pastry, horizontally. 

Fold the bottom corner over the filling tightly.

Now fold the left corner into the middle of the roll.

Fold the right corner into the middle of the roll, so right meets the left.

Now you'll have an envelope.

Roll the bottom up until you reach to the edge.

On the triangle edge, apply little cornflour slurry and seal the edge.

Repeat the same procedure with remaining filo sheets and make more rolls.

Place all of them on a baking sheet, brush all of them with remaining oil and sprinkle sesame seeds.

Bake 18-20 minutes or until light golden brown.

Serve hot with sweet chilli sauce.

Enjoy! 

NOTES:

If you can't find Chinese five spice powder, use white pepper powder.
These rolls can freeze as long as the pastry you have used is fresh and not frozen.
