Fried ricepaper rolls are the best! Im Vietnamese, livin in Laos for all of my childhood, this is what the locals do. If you have trouble frying, you can either try to roll them tighter or, i use to leave them in the refrigerator for a while (at least 15 min) and then they will be easier to fry. You can also fry the meet and everything before you roll the mix into the ricepaper (just make sure the mix has cooled off). Eggrolls i think is a chinese thing, mostly common in the West.

@electricmoo88 Doesn't take long to cook spring rolls.

@Aarun22 He is making it with the correct wraps. I've had it at a Vietnamese restaurant before and they use the spring roll wraps because it is called "crispy spring rolls" and it is really good.

@Aarun22 Thanks for the advice, however as noted in the title these are not egg rolls, they are "crispy spring rolls". Feel free to use a flour based wrapper instead of the rice paper and this recipe should turn out equally well. I traveled all over Vietnam this summer and never had a crispy spring roll made with anything but fried rice paper. Enjoy!

Are you sure those are cooked??! I looove these type of spring rolls but I HATE making them! It's so messy and the rice wrappers gets all bubbly and burnt and the meat is still kind of pink -.-

@electricmoo88 They were cooked for sure (i.e. I ate them all and none contained raw meat and they were delicious).
To avoid the rice wrappers getting all bubbly and burnt make sure that you don't leave excess water on them.
If you are worried about the meat not being cooked make sure that the filling mixture does not contain frozen (or even really cold) components. Also you could use a probe thermometer to test the internal temperature of one spring roll once it is cooked.
