HOMEMADE EGG ROLLS
These came out tasting JUST like egg rolls you get from a chinese restaurant! i added a little imitation crab, but other than that followed the recipe. i also didnt fry at the end, i brushed with olive oil and broiled them for about 5 min and they got crispy on both sides. didnt feel like the mess of frying. they were still great!
Ingridients
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 head of cabbage (about 11 ounces) I used coleslaw mix from the produce department
- 3 carrots, shredded
- 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
- 10 fresh shiitake mushrooms, stems discarded
- 1 Tbsp cooking oil
- 1 Tbsp Chinese Rice Wine
- 1 Tbsp Soy Sauce
- 1/4 tsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 Tbsp cornstarch – to seal egg rolls
- 1/4 cup cool water – to seal egg rolls
Instruction
- Heat a wok or large saute pan over high heat. Add some cooking oil.
- Add the garlic, cabbage, carrots, ginger, and mushrooms and stir-fry for 1 minute or until vegetables are softened.
- Add the rice wine, soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, salt/pepper. Continue to stir-fry for another minute.
- Remove the filling and place on a baking sheet tray in a thin layer to cool. Raise one end of the tray to allow for the liquids to drain away from the filling.
- Fill 1 Tbsp of filling for each egg roll. Roll the egg roll, making sure you are rolling tightly. Use the cornstarch and cool water mixture to seal each egg roll.
- Heat up about 2 inches of oil in a sauce pan. When the oil is hot, place the egg rolls in the hot oil carefully and fry in batches. Fry until golden brown, a minute or two max.
- Remove the egg rolls and place on a cooling rack over a baking sheet to let drain and cool slightly.
