Soak the glass noodles in warm water for 10-15 minutes until softened. Drain and cut into 3-inch segments. Set aside.
In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 teaspoon of sesame oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sautΓ© for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the julienned carrots, shredded cabbage, and bean sprouts to the skillet. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until slightly tender but still crisp.
Stir in the soaked glass noodles, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, and 1 teaspoon of ground pepper. Toss well to combine. Cook for another minute. Remove from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
Place a spring roll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond orientation. Add 2-3 tablespoons of the filling near the bottom corner of the wrapper.
Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly into a cylinder. Seal the top corner by brushing it with a little water. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
In a deep pan, heat 2 cups of vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350Β°F (175Β°C).
Carefully add the spring rolls in batches, frying for 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Serve the spring rolls hot with sweet chili sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
