Spring rolls are a culinary staple in East and Southeast Asia, each culture giving them a unique twist:

Chinese spring rolls often feature finely chopped vegetables and meat, tightly wrapped and deep-fried.

Vietnamese fresh spring rolls (Gỏi cuốn) are made with rice paper and fresh herbs, typically served cold.

Thai spring rolls are known for their balance of sweet and spicy flavors.

Indonesian Lumpia reflects Chinese influence blended with local ingredients like bamboo shoots, jicama, and sweet soy sauce.

In all their forms, spring rolls symbolize renewal, abundance, and good luck, particularly during festive seasons like Lunar New Year or Ramadan in Indonesia.
