You probably know the deep fried version of the Spring Roll, known as Loempia, Lumpia or Dim Sum. But in this case the Spring Rolls aren’t fried which makes them a bit healthier. Only filled with yummy veggies, sesame seeds and cashews! They make a great dish for a lunch-to-go; take the Spring Rolls along with you in a tray and use a small jar with lid to carry the sauce!

Spring Rolls (1 person, 2 Spring Rolls)

  • Some carrots
  • 1/2 Zucchini
  • 1/2 Red bell pepper/paprika
  • Spoonful of sesame seeds
  • Handful of cashews
  • 2 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp Sesame oil
  • 1 tsp of dried Coriander (if you have some fresh Coriander I’d recommend that!)
  • 2 Sheets of Rice paper

– A bamboo Sushi rolling mat will make it easier to roll up the Spring Rolls

Cut all the veggies Jullienne (in small strips). Heat a little oil in a pan and stir fry the veggies for about 3 minutes. Personally I like it when the vegetables still have ‘a bite’. Turn down the heat, add the coriander and shake the pan to mix the herbs through the vegetables. Soak the rice paper following the instructions on the package and place onto the rolling mat. Divide the vegetables in two portions and place onto the rice paper. Sprinkle some sesame seeds and chopped cashews, fold the sides of the rice paper to the inside and roll up into a Spring Roll. Repeat to make the other Spring Roll.

Serve with some Soy and Sesame dip: mix 2 tablespoons of soy sauce with 1 tablespoon of sesame oil and add some sesameseeds.
