Prepare the spring roll pastry by placing sugar in the center.

Fold both sides of the pastry over the sugar and roll it up tightly.

Seal the edges with a little water to ensure it stays closed during frying.

Heat oil in a pan for frying the rolled pastries.

Carefully place the rolled pastries into the hot oil, frying them until golden brown.

Flip the pastries to ensure even cooking on both sides.

Once cooked, remove the pastries and place them on a plate lined with tissue to absorb excess oil.

In a separate pot, combine sugar and a little water to create a caramel sauce, heating until it thickens.

Drizzle the caramel over the fried pastries for added sweetness and crunch.
