Units Scale

Egg Rolls

  • 12 egg roll wrappers
  • 1 egg beaten
  • oil for frying

The Filling

  • seeds mix
  • salt and peppper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup green onions sliced
  • 3 cups red cabbage
  • 1 teaspoon garlic minced
  • 3/4 pound ground pork

Instructions

  1. Heat the 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the ground pork and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Cook, breaking up the pork with a spatula until the meat is browned and cooked through.
  3. Next, add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  4. Stir in the red cabbage, carrot, and green onions. Cook until cabbage is wilted (about 3-4 minutes).
  5. Finally, add the soy sauce and seed mix. Stir and remove from heat.
  6. Spoon approximately 2 tablespoons of filling onto each egg roll wrapper and fold according to package directions.
  7. Keep in mind to use the beaten egg to seal the edges of the wrappers as you pack your egg rolls. 
  8. Pour approximately 2-3 inches of oil into a deep pot.
  9. Heat the oil and fry 3-4 egg rolls at a time. Don’t forget to turn them on both sides, until golden brown all over (approximately 3 minutes). Don’t overcook them!
  10. Drain them on paper towels, then serve with soy sauce or any dip you prefer.

Notes

If you usually don’t consume pork meat, use ground chicken instead.

If you prefer to bake your egg rolls, you can coat them with cooking spray and bake them at 425 degrees F for 15-20 minutes (or until browned and crispy).
