Cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per batch.<strong>Draining<\/strong>: Place on a wire rack or paper towels to remove excess oil.<\/li><\/ul>Alternative Cooking Methods<ul><li><strong>Baking<\/strong>: Brush the rolls lightly with oil and bake at 400\u00b0F (200\u00b0C) for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through for even browning.<strong>Air-Frying<\/strong>: Lightly brush with oil and air-fry at 375\u00b0F (190\u00b0C) for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through.<\/li><\/ul>Serve with dipping sauces such as sweet chili sauce, soy sauce with a bit of vinegar, or peanut sauce for added flavor.

Fry them directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.<strong>Leftovers<\/strong>: Store in an\u00a0airtight container\u00a0in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in an oven or air fryer for a crispy texture.<\/li><\/ul>Variations<ul><li><strong>Protein Options<\/strong>: Add tofu, shrimp, or shredded chicken for a heartier roll.<strong>Vegetable Choices<\/strong>: Use seasonal vegetables, such as zucchini or snap peas, for added variety.<strong>Spicy Filling<\/strong>: Add finely chopped chili or a dash of hot sauce to the filling for a spicy twist.<\/li><\/ul>Homemade\u00a0<strong>Vegetable Spring Rolls with Handmade Dough<\/strong>\u00a0are a rewarding and versatile dish that\u2019s great for entertaining or enjoying as a light meal.
