Pound garlic, coriander, pepper and ginger until smooth. Add pork, turmeric, oyster sauce and fish sauce and pound until homogeneous. Add carrot, onion and spring onions. Mix without pounding and divide into 6 equal portions.
Place a spring roll wrapper on a board with one corner facing you. Brush edges with beaten egg. Place 1 portion of filling in the corner closest to you. Place half a shrimp on top. Fold the corner over the mixture. Fold down the side corners and roll up.
