Crispy vegetable spring roll (Por Piah Tod)

I have a craving for crispy vegetable spring roll for the past few months. Couldn’t get satisfaction from store-bought ones, decided to make my own. It’s been donkey years since I last made my own spring rolls 😂

I’m doing a Thai-style one which includes glass noodles; but then again, some local (SGMY) ones also include it right? Whatever, so long as I like it.

Made small-size ones with lots of ingredients, fried to a crisp & eaten with Thai plum sauce & sweet chilli, so yummy 😋 Homemade is the best!
