Prepare the Filling

Cook the Pork
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground pork. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.

Add Vegetables
Once the pork is cooked, add the shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, and chopped green onions. Stir well and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

Season the Mixture

Prepare the Wrappers
Lay one egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner facing you. Place about 2 tablespoons of the filling mixture near the corner closest to you.

Roll and Seal
Fold the corner over the filling, then fold the sides in and roll away from you to form a tight roll. Use a little water to seal the edge of the wrapper.
