Oven-baked chicken spring rolls

✔️Lactose-free

Spring rolls are a classic on many Iftar tables during Ramadan. These oven-baked chicken spring rolls are crispy, flavorful and slightly lighter since they're baked instead of fried. The filling is packed with vegetables, tender noodles and warm spices, while a brush of paprika sunflower oil gives them a beautiful golden colour in the oven. Perfect to prepare ahead and share with family and friends after a day of fasting.

Instructions

1. Pour the boiling water into a pot and add the chicken breast. Cover the pot and let the chicken cook until done.

2. Slice the leek and bake it in a pan with a drizzle of olive oil for 5-10 minutes.

3. For the paprika sunflower oil, pour the sunflower oil into a pan and stir in the paprika powder. Let it heat gently for 5-10 minutes, then remove from the heat and allow it to cool.

4. Place the noodles in a bowl and pour the boiling water over them. Let them sit until soft, then drain.

5. Grate the carrots and shred the cooked chicken. Add them to a large bowl together with the leek, sambal, spices, soy sauce, grated cheese, noodles and coriander. Mix everything well.

6. Place a spring roll wrapper on your workspace in a diamond shape, with one corner pointing toward you.

7. Spread a tablespoon of paprika sunflower oil over the wrapper and place a handful of filling on top.

8. Fold the sides inward, then fold the bottom corner over the filling and roll tightly to form a spring roll. Repeat until all filling is used.

9. Bake the spring rolls in a preheated oven at 200 degrees for 20-30 minutes, until golden and crispy.
