How To Make Spring roll wrappers/sheets1 Measure your flour and salt into a bowl and mix together. Add water gradually and mix well to prevent any lumps formation. Additionally, you can strain your batter to remove lumps not seen (optional).
2 Get your non-stick pan and place on the lowest heat. With the aid of a pastry brush, brush the batter on the pan to form a circular shape or till it covers the entire pan. Adjust the heat slightly higher, allow to dry and/or till the wrapper becomes easy to remove from the pan.
3 Place the wrapper on a damp kitchen towel and cover so it doesn’t dry out. Clean the pan with a wet cloth and repeat the process till all the batter is finished.
Directions: How To Make Spring roll1 Heat up your cooking oil in a pan on medium heat and sauté your onions till it’s translucent.
2 Add your ground turkey/beef/chicken and stir-fry till it turns from pink to brown. Add your black pepper, soy sauce and spice mix, stir to combine and stir-fry for about two minutes.3 Add your shredded cabbage and carrot and stir-fry for about a minute then remove from heat. Set aside to cool.
4 Mix a tablespoon of flour with a tablespoon of water and set aside to be used as the sealing paste.
