Cook for another minute, and remove from heat and cool. Use 2 heaped tablespoons of the vegetable filling for the large wrappers and for small spring roll wrappers, use 1 tablespoon of filling. Roll up into cigar shapes. Cover with cling wrap and keep aside till serving time. Shallow fry just before serving, till crisp and brown.
