Ingredients
-
12 spring roll wrappers (thawed if frozen)
-
2 cups mozzarella cheese, shredded
-
1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
-
1 teaspoon garlic powder
-
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
-
1 pinch of black pepper and sea salt
-
Vegetable oil for frying
-
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour mixed with 2 tablespoons water (sealing paste)
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the Cheese Filling
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded mozzarella, softened cream cheese, garlic powder, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until all spices are evenly incorporated into the cheeses.
2. Wrap the Spring Rolls
-
Lay a spring roll wrapper flat on a clean surface in a diamond shape.
-
Place two tablespoons of the cheese mixture near the bottom corner.
-
Fold the bottom corner over the filling, tuck in the left and right sides tightly, and roll upward.
-
Dab a small amount of the flour-water paste on the final top corner to seal the wrapper securely.
3. Fry to Golden Perfection
Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or frying pan to 350°F (175°C). Carefully place the spring rolls into the hot oil in small batches. Fry for 3 to 4 minutes, turning occasionally, until the wrappers turn an even golden brown and crispy.
4. Drain and Serve
Remove the rolls using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Garnish with extra sesame seeds, crushed red pepper flakes, and fresh herbs. Serve hot alongside your favorite sweet chili dipping sauce.
