Common Questions About Air Fryer Spring Rolls

Can I Make These Spring Rolls Vegan?

Absolutely! The beauty of this recipe is its flexibility. The base recipe is already vegan, making it a great choice for everyone. All you really need to do is make sure your egg roll wrappers are vegan and you should be good to go.

How Do I Keep the Spring Rolls from Sticking in the Air Fryer?

To prevent sticking, ensure the spring rolls are not touching in the basket and lightly coat them with a bit of vegetable oil or cooking spray. You may want to also lightly spray the basket of the air fryer as well.

What’s the Best Dipping Sauce to Serve with These?

Thai sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, or peanut sauce make fantastic dipping options, offering a sweet or savory complement to the crispy rolls. I’m also a big fan of sweet and sour sauce!

Storage

Homemade spring rolls are one of my all-time favorite foods. When making them in the air fryer, you only use a little oil, which I think levels up their flavor even more.

Refrigerator

Store leftover spring rolls in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer to keep them crispy.

Freezer

Freeze the cooked or uncooked spring rolls on a baking sheet before transferring to a freezer bag. Cook directly from frozen, adjusting cooking time as needed.

Tips

Practice makes perfect! If you’ve never done this before, don’t worry. Your first couple might look a little wonky, but you’ll figure it out quickly!

• Preheat Your Air Fryer: This ensures the spring rolls start cooking immediately, enhancing their crispiness.
• Avoid Overfilling: Keep the fillings modest to avoid bursting during cooking.
• Seal Tightly with Cornstarch Mixture: This acts as glue and prevents the filling from spilling out.
• Turn Halfway Through: For even browning and crispiness, turn the spring rolls halfway through cooking.
• Light Oil Coating: A light spray or brush of oil over the spring rolls before air frying adds to the golden finish.

Ingredients

Don’t skip the cornstarch. You’ll be surprised at what a difference it makes when sealing up these little bundles of joy.

• Spring roll pastry wrappers
• Tricolor coleslaw mix
• Bean sprouts
• Thinly sliced mushrooms
• Garlic
• Soy sauce
• Sesame oil
• Ginger
• Cornstarch
• Water
• Cooking oil

How to Make Air Fryer Spring Rolls

I think these are a great gameday treat. Not everything has to give you a heart attack when you’re watching the Super Bowl, haha!

1. Combine the garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, and ginger in a large bowl. Mix well.
2. Add the coleslaw mix, bean sprouts, and mushrooms to the sauce mixture. Toss well to coat. Allow the mixture to marinate for 5 minutes before tossing again.
3. Lay out two overlapping spring roll wrappers like a diamond. 
4. Place a spoonful of the vegetable mixture in the center.
5. Mix the cornstarch and water. Set aside.
6.  Fold the sides of the wrapper over the filling, then fold the bottom over and roll tightly. Use the cornstarch-water mixture to seal the edge.
7. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
8. Lightly coat the spring rolls with cooking oil and place them in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not touching.
9. Air fry for 10-12 minutes, turning over halfway through, or until the spring rolls are golden brown and crispy.
10. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce or soy sauce.
