Spinach and Cheese Spring Rolls

By Sho @ Hungry for Thai on Jan 8th 2025 Sho

Spinach and Cheese Spring Rolls are a fusion twist that brings a Western touch to Thai cuisine. Traditionally, Thai spring rolls are filled with vegetables, glass noodles, and sometimes meat, but this version swaps in spinach and cheese—resulting in a deliciously crispy, gooey bite that’s both unique and satisfying.

What you'll need

  • Garlics: Adds a fragrant and savory flavor to the filling.
  • Oil: Used for sautéing the garlic and shallots, adding moisture and helping to release their aroma and flavor.
  • Shallots: Enhances the depth of flavor with its mild, sweet taste.
  • Spinach: The main vegetable ingredient, providing a soft and earthy base.
  • Salt: Balances and enhances the flavors of the filling.
  • Pepper: Adds a touch of heat and sharpness to taste.
  • Mozzarella cheese or other types of cheese as desired: Brings a creamy and stretchy texture to the filling.
  • Spring Roll Wrappers: Encases the filling, creating a crispy outer layer when fried.
  • All-Purpose Flour Mixed with Water: Acts as a sealant to keep the rolls intact while cooking.

For my Spinach and Cheese Spring Rolls, you can enjoy them as they are.

But if you’re looking for a bolder flavor, especially for a party, try pairing them with the Spicy Yogurt Dip.

It’s quick and easy to make, with just a few ingredients, adding a deliciously tangy and spicy kick to every bite!

I also found another dipping sauce that pairs incredibly well with these crispy, cheesy spring rolls.

The rich, creamy texture of the sauce perfectly balances the crunch and gooey filling.

It’s the Easy 5-Minute Chimichurri Aioli. Trust me, this combo is a must-try!

If you want to try making authentic Thai Spring Rolls, no worries—I’ve got you covered! They’re fun and easy to make, and super yummy!

Spinach and Cheese Spring Rolls are a versatile dish perfect for any occasion.

Whether enjoyed as a starter, a snack, or party food, their crispy exterior and creamy, cheesy filling make them a crowd-pleaser.

You can deep-fry or air-fry, depending on your preference.
