Ingredients

• 250 grams mung bean sprouts
• 1 medium, julienned carrot
• 100 grams, sliced thinly green beans
• 0.5 large, sliced into strips red bell pepper
• 100 grams, shredded cabbage
• 1 small, chopped onion
• 2 cloves, minced garlic
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce, low-sodium
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 12 pieces spring roll wrappers
• 0 as needed for cooking extra virgin olive oil spray

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the mung bean sprouts thoroughly under cold water and drain well.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large pan. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 3

Add the julienned carrot, sliced green beans, and red bell pepper strips to the pan. Stir-fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until they start to soften.

Step 4

Add the shredded cabbage and mung bean sprouts to the pan. Stir well and cook for another 3 minutes.

Step 5

Pour in the low-sodium soy sauce and sprinkle black pepper over the vegetables. Mix everything thoroughly until the soy sauce is evenly distributed and the vegetables are well combined. Cook for an additional 2 minutes or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

Step 6

Remove the pan from heat and let the vegetable mixture cool completely.

Step 7

Take one spring roll wrapper and place it on a flat surface. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the vegetable mixture onto the lower part of the wrapper, leaving about a 2-inch space from the bottom edge.

Step 8

Fold the bottom edge over the filling and then fold in the sides. Roll the wrapper tightly towards the top. Brush a little water on the top edge of the wrapper to seal it. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.

Step 9

Preheat the air fryer to 200°C (390°F) or preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 10

Lightly spray the spring rolls with extra virgin olive oil spray. If using an air fryer, cook for 10-12 minutes, turning halfway, until golden brown. If using a skillet, place the rolls seam-side down, and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crisp.

Step 11

Serve the lumpiang toge warm and enjoy as a nutritious appetizer or snack.
