In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the lean ground pork until lightly browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon.
Add the minced garlic and sliced green onions to the skillet; cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
Mix in the shredded carrot, green cabbage, and bean sprouts. Stir-fry for another 3–4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened.
Stir in the light soy sauce, fish sauce, cornstarch, chili flakes, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and let the mixture cool for a few minutes.
Place a spring roll wrapper on a clean, flat surface with one corner pointing towards you. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the filling onto the bottom third of the wrapper.
Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll up tightly to the top corner, sealing the edge with a dab of water. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Arrange the spring rolls on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray them with cooking spray for a crisp texture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes or until the spring rolls are golden brown and crispy, turning them halfway through the cooking time.
Remove from the oven and let the spring rolls cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauce.
