1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, green onions, minced ginger, and minced garlic.
2. Add soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until the vegetables are evenly coated with the seasoning.
3. Take one spring roll wrapper and lay it on a clean, flat surface in a diamond orientation.
4. Place about 2 tablespoons of the vegetable filling near the bottom corner of the wrapper. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly to form a cylindrical shape. Seal the edge with a little water to keep it closed. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
5. Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or pot over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
6. Gently slide 3-4 spring rolls at a time into the hot oil and fry for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy. Do not overcrowd the pan.
7. Remove the fried spring rolls and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
8. Serve hot with chili sauce or a tangy dipping sauce of your choice. Enjoy the authentic taste of Kathmandu!
