Method
To a bowl, add cheese, mint, salt and sesame seeds. Mix them well to combine. Set the filling aside and prepare your spring roll sheets.
On a clean surface, lay out the spring roll wrapper and place the filling near the bottom corner. Roll tightly to form a spring roll. To seal the spring roll, apply a small amount of slurry to the exposed corner and stick.
In a pan, add enough oil to cover the surface. Once hot, add in the spring rolls and fry until golden brown and crispy on one side, around 2-3 minutes. Rotate the spring rolls and repeat the process until the entire exterior is deeply golden brown and crispy.
