  • 1

    Soak the vermicelli noodles in warm water until softened, then drain and add to a large mixing bowl. Add the carrots, spring onions, garlic, ginger, mint, bean sprouts, soy sauce and sesame oil to the bowl and toss everything together.

    Step 2

    To assemble the spring rolls, mix a little flour and water together to make a smooth paste. Lay one spring roll wrapper out on a clean surface and cover the rest with a damp tea towel.

    Step 3

    Add about 1 tablespoonful of mixture to the centre of the wrapper, just below the middle. Fold the bottom edge over the filling, then fold the sides over the top, so you have a rough rectangle forming a sort of envelope. Roll up the wrapper tightly into a neat sausage shape around the filling and seal the edge with a little flour-water paste.

    Step 6

    Place about 4 spring rolls in the air-fryer basket at any one time, making sure there is plenty of space between them, and cook for 15–17 minutes, until crisp and golden.
