Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 8 spring roll wrappers
- 1 cup mixed vegetables
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
Seasoning Ingredients:
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Binding and Finishing Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
Instructions
- Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes until shimmering.
- Toss 1 cup finely chopped mixed vegetables into the pan. Saute for 3-4 minutes until they soften slightly.
- Sprinkle ½ tsp each of garlic powder, black pepper, salt, and optional red pepper flakes over the vegetables. Stir to distribute evenly.
- Remove vegetable mixture from heat. Fold ½ cup shredded cheese into the warm vegetables until partially melted.
- Lay a spring roll wrapper flat on your cutting board. Wait 30 seconds for the filling to cool slightly.
- Scoop 2 tbsp vegetable-cheese mixture onto the bottom third of the wrapper.
- Fold the sides of the wrapper inward to create sealed edges.
- Roll the wrapper tightly, using a flour-water paste to seal the final edge.
- Repeat the rolling process with remaining wrappers and filling.
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Arrange rolls on the baking sheet, ensuring they do not touch each other.
- Brush each roll with 1 tbsp olive oil. Sprinkle optional sesame seeds on top.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through to ensure even browning.
- Remove from oven when rolls are golden and crispy. Rest for 3-4 minutes before serving.
- Serve with your preferred dipping sauce like marinara or spicy mayo.
Notes
- Choosing the right vegetables makes these rolls super adaptable, so grab whatever fresh produce looks good at the market.
- Sesame seeds add a nice crunch, but can be swapped with everything bagel seasoning for extra flavor.
- Ensure your spring roll wrappers are at room temperature to prevent cracking when rolling.
- For a gluten-free version, use rice paper wrappers instead of traditional wheat-based spring roll wrappers.
