Treat your ingredients with care...

• Spring roll wrappers — Make sure to keep the wrappers covered with a damp cloth while assembling the spring rolls to prevent them from drying out.
• Shredded cabbage and carrots — Squeeze out any excess moisture from the shredded vegetables before mixing them with the other ingredients to prevent the filling from becoming too watery.
• Chopped cooked chicken — You can use leftover cooked chicken or quickly cook some chicken breast and shred it for the filling.
• Soy sauce — Use low-sodium soy sauce if you prefer a less salty taste.
• Oyster sauce — If you have a shellfish allergy, you can substitute oyster sauce with hoisin sauce for a similar flavor.

Tips & Tricks

• For extra crispiness, you can double fry the spring rolls. After the initial frying, let them cool for a few minutes, then fry them again until they turn golden brown.
• Serve the spring rolls immediately to enjoy them at their best texture and flavor.
• Experiment with different dipping sauces such as sweet chili sauce, plum sauce, or even ketchup for a fast food twist.

Serving advice

Serve the Fast Food Spring Rolls as a main course with a side of fries or coleslaw for a complete fast food experience. Alternatively, they can be served as an appetizer or snack.

Presentation advice
