Substitution - Spring roll fillings

As the remaining filo pastry in the fridge nearing its expiry date, I needed fillings for the pastry. Sweet or savoury? No contest, of course savoury ;p
First thought popiah a.k.a. spring roll 's filling. The photo you see in the link is the wet version while I made the baked version since I'm using filo pastry . By the way, can filo pastry be fried?

Again this is a "what you see, what you get" recipe. The recipe requires turnip which is not available here. So, I've experiment with Hungarian turnip and still tasted pretty much the same. I'm happy with the outcome...woohoo! I can have spring rolls whenever I crave for them :)

Fillings :-
Carrots (shreded)
Turnip (shreded) (substitute with Hungarian turnip)
onions (chopped finely)
Green peas
Chinese sausages which has a sweet base (in this case, I've substitute Hungarian sausages )
seasoning to taste - salt, peppper, sugar
