For the Filling:
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
- 1 cup grated carrots
- 1 cup cooked halal chicken or shrimp, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp soy sauce (halal-certified)
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp minced ginger
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Wrappers and Frying:
- 20 spring roll wrappers (halal-certified)
- 1 tbsp flour mixed with 2 tbsp water (to seal the rolls)
- Vegetable oil for frying
Prepare the Filling
Heat sesame oil in a pan over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger, sautéing until fragrant.
Add cabbage, carrots, and cooked chicken or shrimp. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes.
Mix in soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat and let the filling cool.
Assemble the Spring Rolls
Place a spring roll wrapper on a flat surface in a diamond shape.
Add 1-2 tbsp of filling near the bottom corner of the wrapper.
Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold the sides inward. Roll tightly to form a cylinder, sealing the edge with the flour-water mixture. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
Fry the Spring Rolls
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C).
Fry the spring rolls in batches until golden brown and crispy.
Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
