Egg Rolls Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Filling

   In a large skillet, heat a small amount of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the ground pork or chicken and cook until browned. Stir in the cabbage, carrots, and green onions, and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes. Add soy sauce and mix well. Remove from heat and let the filling cool.

2. 2

   Assemble the Egg Rolls

   Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface or cutting board in a diamond shape. Place about 2 tablespoons of the filling in the center of the wrapper. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly to seal. Use a little water on the edge to help seal it.

3. 3

   Fry the Egg Rolls

   In a deep pan or fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add egg rolls in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

4. 4

   Prepare the Fish Sauce

   In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup of fish sauce, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 1 tablespoon of lime juice until the sugar is dissolved. Adjust to taste.

5. 5

   Serve

   Serve the crispy egg rolls hot with the prepared fish sauce for dipping.
