Celebrate this Mother’s Day with an appetizer/snack that’s easy, quick and delicious!
When we were living in England, our favorite appetizer at any party we hosted were these amazing Spring Rolls sold in this tiny Indian sweet shop.Their Indian style spring rolls were made of just Paneer and tasted divine!It was very different from any other Spring rolls I’d ever had and I instantly fell in love with it!When I picked up some Spring Roll Wrappers from a Korean Store recently, I thought of recreating the same recipe, but with different vegetables for more flavor and some crunch.

These are very mild with just 5 ingredients in the filling and go well with a hot sauce like Sriracha on the side.You could use your imagination and add anything else you want to it like green chillies or some paprika, but I’ve kept it really simple.The process is fairly easy and does not take too long.These are also good for you since I’ve baked them instead of deep frying!The result is a crisp, crunchy and delicious appetizer that you can serve your guest at your next party!

    Lovely recipe Soni! I love spring rolls! Don’t eat them often enough because the ones that delivered are deep fried. I must try your baked version. It sounds fantastic. 🙂

    These are baked? What joy…I love spring rolls, but mostly do not make them at home cos of deep frying jhanjhat…now baking them is such a good idea 🙂

    Soni, these look delicious! And the peppers give the filling such a lovely hit of color.

  17. Navaneetham Krishnan says

    I will definitely drool over these vegetable rolls but baking them is different as our version is the fried ones. A doll up of chilly sauce will be perfect.

    Great give away to coincide with mother’s day.

    They look and sound so tasty! And the fact you baked them instead of deep-frying is a very good idea of making a snack more healthy. Thanks for sharing!
