In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, julienned carrots, bean sprouts, red bell pepper slices, green onions, minced garlic, grated ginger, and fresh cilantro.
Add the low sodium soy sauce and sesame oil to the vegetable mixture. Toss to combine, ensuring the vegetables are well coated with the sauce.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry. This will help seal the spring roll wrappers.
Place one spring roll wrapper on a clean, flat surface with a corner facing you, like a diamond.
Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the vegetable filling near the corner closest to you.
Fold the corner over the filling, then fold in the sides snugly, and continue rolling upwards. Moisten the top corner with a bit of the cornstarch slurry to seal the roll.
Repeat the rolling process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350Β°F (175Β°C).
Fry the spring rolls in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan, until they are golden and crispy, approximately 3-4 minutes per batch.
Remove the spring rolls from the oil and drain them on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Serve hot with your choice of low sodium dipping sauce.
