Ingredients
- 200 g (7 oz) cooked salmon, flaked
- 1 cup shredded cabbage
- 1 small carrot, julienned
- 2 green onions, finely sliced
- 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 tbsp soy sauce

Instructions
- Prepare filling: In a bowl, combine flaked salmon, cabbage, carrot, green onions, cilantro, soy sauce, sesame oil, and chili flakes (if using). Mix well.
- Assemble rolls: Place a spring roll wrapper on a clean surface. Add 2 tbsp of filling near one corner. Fold the corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly. Brush the edge with beaten egg to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers.
- Heat oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
- Fry rolls: Fry spring rolls in batches for 3–4 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
- Serve: Enjoy hot with sweet chili sauce, soy dipping sauce, or spicy mayo.
Tips & Variations
- Bake instead of frying: Brush with oil and bake at 400°F (200°C) for 20 minutes, flipping halfway.
- Use smoked salmon for a richer flavor twist.
- Try adding bean sprouts or bell peppers for extra crunch.
- Serve with pickled vegetables for balance.
