These crispy veggie egg rolls from the airfryer are a delicious, healthy snack or side dish. They are packed with veggies and are quick and easy to make! 🌱

Ingredients:

  • 10 spring roll wrappers (found in most Asian supermarkets)
  • 1 cup chopped white cabbage (finely chopped)
  • 1/2 cup sliced ​​carrots (julienne or grated)
  • 1/2 cup sliced ​​mushrooms (finely chopped)
  • 1/4 cup chopped spring onion
  • 1 clove garlic (finely chopped)
  • 1/4 cup bean sprouts
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten free)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar (optional, for extra freshness)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ginger powder (or fresh ginger, grated)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Oil in a spray can or brush (for spraying the egg rolls)

Preparation method:

  1. Making filling

    • Heat a little sesame oil in a pan over medium heat.
    • Add the garlic and ginger and fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
    • Add the chopped vegetables (cabbage, carrots, mushrooms, spring onion, bean sprouts) and fry for 5-7 minutes until soft but still slightly crunchy.
    • Add soy sauce, rice vinegar (optional) and a little salt and pepper. Stir well and remove from heat.

  2. Rolling egg rolls

    • Place a spring roll wrapper on a clean surface, with one point facing you (like a diamond).
    • Spoon a tablespoon of the vegetable mixture onto the bottom half of the spring roll wrapper.
    • Fold the bottom point up over the filling, fold the sides in and roll the egg roll tightly.
    • Repeat with the rest of the filling and spring roll wrappers.

  3. Preheat the Airfryer

    • Preheat your air fryer to 180°C (350°F) for about 3-5 minutes.

  4. Baking in the air fryer

    • Spray the egg rolls lightly with oil or use a brush to give them a thin layer of oil. This will give an extra crispy result.
    • Place the egg rolls in the basket of the airfryer. Make sure they are not on top of each other, so that the air can circulate well.
    • Bake them in the airfryer for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Shake halfway through the baking time for even crispiness.

  5. Serve

    • Let the veggie egg rolls cool briefly before serving. They are delicious with a dipping sauce of soy sauce, sweet chili sauce or homemade peanut sauce!

Tips:

  • You can vary the filling with other vegetables, such as bell pepper, spinach or kale, depending on what you like.
  • For an extra dimension of flavor, you can add some hoisin sauce to the filling.
  • Store the unbaked egg rolls in the refrigerator for later use or freeze them to bake in the air fryer later!

Enjoy your meal! 🌱
