Ingredients
For the Filling:
1 cup cooked chicken, shredded
½ cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
½ cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon paprika (optional, for a smoky flavor)
¼ teaspoon red chili flakes (optional, for a spicy kick)
1 tablespoon fresh parsley or coriander, chopped
1 tablespoon mayonnaise (for creaminess)
For the Dough or Wrapping:
10-12 spring roll wrappers (or use homemade dough if preferred)
1 egg, beaten (for sealing)
Oil for deep frying or baking
Instructions
Prepare the Filling:
In a bowl, mix the shredded chicken, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, onion, garlic, black pepper, salt, paprika, and red chili flakes.
Add mayonnaise and fresh parsley/coriander, mixing everything well. Set aside.
Assemble the Rolls:
Lay a spring roll wrapper on a clean surface.
Place about 1-2 tablespoons of the filling near one edge of the wrapper.
Fold the sides inward and roll tightly, sealing the edge with beaten egg to prevent opening during frying.
Cooking the Rolls:
Deep Frying: Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Fry the rolls until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes.
Baking Option: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush the rolls with a little oil and bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway.
Air Frying: Lightly spray the rolls with oil and air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
Serving:
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces like garlic mayo, ketchup, or a spicy chili sauce.
Serving and Storage Tips
Serving: Best enjoyed fresh and crispy. Serve with a side salad or a light soup for a complete meal.
Storage: Store uncooked rolls in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a month. When ready to eat, fry or bake them straight from frozen—no need to thaw!
