To prepare these frozen spring rolls, you can typically bake or fry them. Baking involves placing the frozen rolls on a baking sheet and cooking them in a preheated oven until they are golden brown and heated through. Frying offers a crispier result; you would heat oil in a pan or deep fryer and cook the rolls until they achieve the desired crispness and internal temperature. Ensure they are fully cooked before serving.
