• Cut each spring roll wrapper diagonally into 2 triangles. Separate the wrappers and cover them with plastic wrap to keep from drying out.
• Place a small bowl of water near the work surface. Working quickly, lay a triangle-shaped spring roll wrapper on a work surface, with the longest side of the triangle closest to you. Place about 2 tablespoons of shrimp mixture in the middle of the triangle, about 1/2 inch from the bottom edge. Bring the left and right points of the triangle over the shrimp mixture, overlapping the points. Begin rolling the wrapper toward the remaining triangle point, tucking the wrapper around the shrimp mixture as you roll.
• Dip the fingers of your working hand in the water and moisten the edges of the final point, then complete the roll. Set aside on a sheet of waxed paper, and continue forming the remaining spring rolls until you have completed about 15.
• Pour enough oil in an 11-inch skillet to be 1/2-inch deep and heat over medium-high until shimmering. While the oil is heating, complete the remaining spring rolls.
• Place 7 or 8 spring rolls into the hot oil and fry for 3 to 4 minutes per side. Space spring rolls about 1/2 inch apart to avoid overcrowding the skillet. Remove to a cooling rack placed over paper towels. Continue frying in batches until all the spring rolls are done.
• To make the dipping sauce, combine hot water and sugar and stir until sugar has dissolved. Add fish sauce, lime juice, and sambal oelek and stir to combine. Pour dipping sauce into individual serving bowls.

• For the sauce: Whisk together 1/3 cup water, the sugar, ketchup, vinegar, Sriracha and cornstarch in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat when the sauce begins to thicken, 30 to 45 seconds. Let cool.

Add the cabbage and carrots, and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 1 minute. Add the shrimp, scallions, mirin, soy sauce, 1/4 teaspoons salt and a few cracks of black pepper, and cook, stirring, until the shrimp turn pink, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, and stir in the sesame oil. Let the mixture cool for 15 minutes. Fold in the bean sprouts. When completely cool, roughly chop the mixture and set aside.
• Put 1 spring roll wrapper on a work surface with a point facing you (it should be a diamond shape). Put about 1 tablespoon of the shrimp mixture in the center of the wrapper, and spread to make a 1-inch log. Fold the bottom of the wrapper over the filling, rolling tightly to keep the spring rolls firm. Fold the sides of the wrapper over the filling. Brush the top edge of the wrapper with egg. Roll up tightly, pressing to seal the edge. Put finished rolls, seam-side down, on a plate or baking sheet until ready to fry. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
• Fill a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven with 3 inches of oil, and attach a deep-fry thermometer to the side. Heat the pot over medium-high heat to 375 degrees F. Fry the spring rolls in batches, 4 or 5 at a time, until lightly golden, about 2 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Serve with the dipping sauce.
