Tips!

Which cabbage leaves for making spring rolls?

You can use Chinese cabbage leaves, as well as green cabbage (savoy cabbage), white cabbage, or red cabbage.

Boil the leaves very briefly; if they are overcooked, they will fall apart and you cannot roll them without breaking.

Can I replace the turkey?

You can replace the turkey with chicken breast or chicken thigh, or use pork. You can also leave out the meat completely and replace it with mushrooms.
