Method
Preparing the Filling
Sauté the Vegetables
In a large skillet, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the shredded cabbage, grated carrots, chopped bell pepper, and chopped green onions. Stir-fry for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Season the Filling
Add soy sauce and pepper to the sautéed vegetables. Mix well and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let the filling cool.
Assembling the Spring Rolls
Prepare the Spring Roll Wrapper
Lay a spring roll wrapper on a clean, flat surface with one corner pointing towards you. Place about 2 tablespoons of the cooled vegetable filling near the corner closest to you.
Roll the Wrapper
Fold the corner over the filling, then fold in the sides tightly and roll away from you to form a tight roll. Seal the edge with a little water.
Repeat
Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Frying the Spring Rolls
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot, about 350°F (175°C).
Fry the Spring Rolls
Carefully add spring rolls to the hot oil, a few at a time, to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serving
Serve with Sauce
Arrange the crispy spring rolls on a serving plate and serve hot with sweet chili sauce for dipping.
