On occasion I feel the need to try something a little healthier with certain foods and Spring Rolls was next on my list. They turned out equally as enjoyable as the fried version and went down a treat with some Sweet Chilli Sauce. Quantities of the ingredients will depend on the amount being made and not sure that the recipe was going to be a success, I only made 6.
Baked Spring Rolls
Ingredients
2 cups red and green cabbage finely sliced
1 small carrot grated
1 small onion finely sliced
2.5ml salt
Bean sprouts
6 spring roll wrappers
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Stir fry the cabbage, carrot and onion and salt until tender but still crunchy.
- Place one wrapper onto a work surface in a diamond shape.
- Place a 6th of the cabbage mixture onto the bottom quarter of the wrapper and put bean sprouts on top of the mixture.
- Fold up the bottom corner of the wrapper over the mixture and then fold the left and right sides into the centre and roll up leaving the top quarter of the wrapper still on the work surface.
- Wet the two sides of the wrapper with a little water before rolling over the rest of the spring roll.
- Repeat until all the spring rolls are made.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
I’ve got a big catering job on the 10th of May, this will be a great addition to my lunch menu, wonder if I could use phyllo pastry?
Congratulations on the catering job. I see an OnlyCin / OriginalCin Catering Company in the future.
I reckon phyllo pastry would be even nicer – lighter and crispier. Yummy. xo
Baked spring rolls are a great idea – the deep fried versions are sooo wicked! Nice recipe, M, thank you! 🙂
Thanks Celia. 🙂
These spring rolls look so lovely 🙂 I love that you baked them 🙂
Thanks Tes. They were lovely and I really should make them more often. 🙂
I like your idea too. I cringe whenever I see recipe that calls for deep frying. Not only is it unhealthy, but deep frying scares me. I think I would have a heart attack if a deep vat of oil ever caught fire in front of me.
This is a nice alternative to deep fat frying and honestly is equally as nice. 🙂
I love this! I’ve been meaning to make some baked spring rolls. Thanks so much for reminding me. 🙂
I reckon baked spring rolls will be back on the menu in our home soon again. 🙂
These would be great for a holiday buffet. Wish I would have seen them sooner, would have made them for my Easter buffet. Would love to have you link these up at for my Easter/spring party 🙂
Sorry that you missed making these for your Easter buffet – maybe next year. 😉
Thanks very much that you want these for your Easter/Spring party – I am popping over now to link them. 🙂
omg baked springrolls- genius! can totally feel good about pigging out on these 😛
Hi Betty, welcome and thanks for stopping by. I know, can’t believe I never thought of baking spring rolls before. 🙂 You have a great blog but unfortunately I cannot subscribe to RSS feeds, something to do with Apple Mac. Would be great if you could add an email subscriptions button. 🙂
hubby loves spring rolls but I never made them since I’m scared of deep frying. your baked version sounds like a great and healthier idea. Thanks Mandy!
This really is a great alternative to deep frying and equally as nice. Hope you hubby enjoys. 🙂
Thisis a great idea, Mandy, you’re a genius 🙂
Must say, I was very impressed with the result. 🙂
I love spring rolls and these are a such a healthy alternative…Thanks for this idea
