I have used store bought frozen wrappers to make these delicious, crispy spring rolls. It is easily available in the market. These sheets are so paper thin which give the perfect crispness and flaky texture.

For the spring roll stuffing mixture, I have used mix of cabbage, onion, carrot and capsicum. You can add green beans, bean sprouts, mushrooms etc as per you preference.

Many prefer to add some boiled noodles in the stuffing mixture. I have not added here. But addition of noodles sure makes it tasty.
