Ingredients
  

For the Pork Filling
  • 1 lb ground pork
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage
  • 2 count green onions finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp ginger grated
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
Spring Roll Wrappers
  • 1 package spring roll wrappers
For Frying
  • vegetable oil for frying

Equipment

  • Large Skillet
  • Large Pot
  • Baking Sheet

Method
 

  1. Step 1: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground pork until it’s browned and fully cooked. Make sure to drain any excess fat.
  2. Step 2: Add in the shredded carrots, cabbage, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Stir well and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool.
  3. Step 3: Lay a spring roll wrapper on a clean surface, with one corner facing you. Place a small amount of the pork mixture near the corner closest to you. Fold that corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll up tightly. Seal the edge with a bit of water.
  4. Step 4: Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
  5. Step 5: In a large pot or deep skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the spring rolls in batches until they turn golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes each. Drain on paper towels.
  6. Step 6: For the Sesame Ponzu Sauce, combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, lemon juice, sesame oil, sesame seeds, and green onion in a small bowl. Mix well.
  7. Step 7: Serve the spring rolls hot with the sesame ponzu sauce on the side for dipping.

Notes
