In this recipe, we will show you how to make crispy and delicious spring rolls using an air fryer instead of deep frying. Packed with flavors and perfect as a snack or appetizer, these chicken mince, potato, and peas spring rolls are a must-try. Let's dive right in and discover the simple steps to create this delectable dish.
Ingredients
To make these mouthwatering spring rolls, gather the following ingredients:
- 1/2 kg chicken mince (you can substitute with lamb or beef mince)
- 2 medium-sized onions
- 2 medium-sized potatoes
- 1 green chili pepper
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chicken seasoning (or any preferred seasoning)
- Crushed chilies
- Chili powder
- Paprika
- Turmeric
- Spring roll pastry sheets
- Frozen peas
- Oil of your choice (for brushing)
- Water
Step 1: Chopping the Onions
Start by finely chopping the two medium-sized onions.
Step 2: Sautéing the Onions
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat and add a small amount of oil. Add the chopped onions to the pan and cook until slightly browned and translucent. This should take about five minutes.
Step 3: Adding the Seasonings
Once the onions are cooked, add in the chopped green chili, salt, pepper, paprika, turmeric, chili powder, and a sprinkle of crushed chilies. Mix well and cook for a few more minutes.
Step 4: Cooking the Mince
Add the chicken mince to the pan and cook until fully cooked through. This process usually takes around 15 minutes, ensuring the mince is browned.
Step 5: Adding the Potatoes and Peas
While the mince is cooking, peel and wash the two potatoes. Cut them into cubes and parboil them in a separate pot for approximately five to ten minutes until slightly soft. Once the mince is cooked, add the parboiled potatoes and frozen peas to the pan and mix them in. Cover the pan and let it simmer for about 10 minutes. Once done, set it aside to cool.
Step 6: Assembling the Spring Rolls
Lay out a spring roll pastry sheet on a clean surface. Take a tablespoon of the cooled mince mixture and place it on the lower portion of the sheet. Roll the bottom over the filling, tuck in the edges, and continue rolling tightly until you have a neat spring roll. Repeat this process with the remaining pastry sheets and filling.
Step 7: Air Frying the Spring Rolls
Preheat your air fryer to 180 degrees Celsius. Lightly brush some oil on the spring rolls to help them achieve a crispy, golden brown exterior. Place the spring rolls in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overcrowded. Cook them for 10 minutes, give the basket a shake, and continue cooking for another 10 minutes or until they are perfectly crispy.
Step 8: Making the Dip Sauce
For a delicious dipping sauce, mix Greek yogurt, mint sauce, and Sriracha mayo in a bowl. Stir well until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
