Prepare the vegetables: shred the cabbage and carrots, rinse the bean sprouts, and thinly slice the green onions.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, bean sprouts, green onions, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
Add the low sodium soy sauce and sesame oil to the vegetable mixture. Mix well to evenly coat the ingredients.
Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing toward you, forming a diamond shape. Place 2-3 tablespoons of the filling in the center of the wrapper.
Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper tightly over the filling. Fold in the sides snugly, then roll toward the top corner, creating a log shape.
Use your finger to brush a small amount of water on the top corner to seal the roll. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep pan over medium-high heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C).
Carefully add the egg rolls to the oil, a few at a time, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the egg rolls from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve warm with a low sodium dipping sauce or enjoy them on their own!
