Spring rolls are one of the most loved appetizers around the world. With their light, crunchy exterior and vibrant, flavorful fillings, they’re a perfect blend of taste and texture. Whether you like them fresh or fried, spring rolls are endlessly customizable and always a crowd-pleaser.
A Bite of History
Spring rolls originated in China as a seasonal dish during the Spring Festival. Traditionally filled with fresh vegetables to celebrate the arrival of spring, they’ve since evolved across Asia and the world into numerous varieties—from the fried Vietnamese Cha Gio to the translucent Thai and Japanese rice paper rolls.
What’s Inside?
While fillings vary by region and preference, common ingredients include:
Shredded cabbage
Julienned carrots
Bell peppers
Bean sprouts
Mushrooms
Rice noodles or vermicelli
Optional proteins like tofu, chicken, or prawns
They’re often wrapped in rice paper or wheat-based sheets and served with dipping sauces like soy sauce, chili garlic, hoisin, or peanut sauce.
Fried vs. Fresh
Fried Spring Rolls: Crispy, golden, and savory—often served hot and perfect for those who crave crunch.
Fresh Spring Rolls: Also known as summer rolls, these are wrapped in rice paper and not cooked, offering a light, refreshing, and healthy option.
Dipping Sauce Ideas
Spicy chili vinegar
Sweet chili sauce
Tangy tamarind chutney
Creamy peanut dip
Perfect for Any Occasion
Whether it’s a party appetizer, a tea-time snack, or a light lunch, spring rolls are versatile and quick to make. Pair them with a chilled drink, and you’ve got a gourmet experience in minutes!
