Healthy baked spring rolls from Martyna Candrick’s new e-cookbook,”My Whole Food Philosophy”.
By Martyna Candrick
Spring rolls are one of our favourite Chinese take out dishes, but in this version they are made more wholesome with only a vegetable filling and baked until crisp.
Feel free to experiment with your own fillings on top of this vegan suggestion. Capsicum, Asian mushrooms, carrot and zucchini are all great fillings. Make sure to pack the ingredients right in for a more nutritious and satisfying roll. For a non-vegan version you could mix in some shredded chicken or barbecue duck.
