Ingredients

25g rice noodles (cooked/softened as packet instructs)

1/2 large carrot (grated)

25g finely sliced white cabbage

25g bean sprouts

6 pieces rice paper (soaked as instructed on pack)

2 teaspoons gluten-free soya sauce (e.g. Saitaku Tamari Soy Sauce)

¼ teaspoon ground pepper

1 teaspoon sugar

1 egg

Sweet chilli sauce

Sunflower oil for deep frying (to fill a saucepan with 10cm of oil or to cover spring rolls)


Method

1. Heat the oil in a wok over a medium heat. Add the carrot, cabbage, bean sprouts, pepper, soya sauce and sugar

2. Stir-fry until all ingredients are cooked then lower the heat (approximately 3 minutes)

3. Add the rice noodles and stir

4. Put the mixture onto an oven tray and spread it out to cool

5. Divide the filling equally between the 6 rice papers

6. Fold the wrapper up at the bottom and fold one side of the wrapper

7. Fold the top down and roll up tightly. Brush on beaten egg to seal

8. Heat the oil over a low temperature

9. Lower the spring rolls gently into the oil with a slotted spoon. It will be easier to fry them in 2-3 batches

10. Deep fry until they just begin to turn brown (approximately 10 minutes) and then remove them from the oil and place them on kitchen roll

Serving suggestion: Serve warm with some sweet chilli sauce
