3) Place a spring roll wrapper on a work surface. Brush the edges with the beaten egg. Place a heaped tablespoon of the filling about 2.5cm from the closest edge of the wrapper. Spread the filling into a log, approximately 10cm long and 2.5cm wide. Place a heaped tablespoon of the cooked noodles on top.
4) Fold the closest edge of the wrapper over the filling. Fold the right and left edges of the wrapper over the filling. Roll up the spring roll tightly and place, seam side down, on a greaseproof paper-lined baking tray until ready to cook. Repeat with the remaining spring roll wrappers.
5) In a high-sided saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it registers 190C on a deep-fry thermometer. Cook the spring rolls, in batches, for 2 to 3 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
6) Cut the spring rolls in half diagonally and transfer to a serving platter. Serve immediately with the cucumber-yogurt dip.
