Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 cups Water
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 tablespoon Neutral oil (vegetable, canola, etc.)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and salt. Make sure the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the water and eggs until fully combined.
Gradually pour the egg mixture into the dry ingredients while stirring continuously. Mix until a smooth, pourable batter forms. The consistency should be similar to crepe batter; thin and runny.
Add 1 tablespoon of neutral oil to the batter and mix well. This will add pliability and prevent the wraps from drying out.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of oil, using a paper towel to evenly distribute it.
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet and quickly tilt the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter into a thin, even layer.
Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift and the surface appears dry. Do not flip the wrapper.
Carefully remove the wrapper from the skillet and place it onto a clean plate. Cover it with a clean kitchen towel to prevent it from drying out.
Repeat the process with the remaining batter, stacking each finished wrapper under the towel to keep them soft and pliable.
Use the finished egg roll wraps immediately by filling them with your desired ingredients, or store them for later use by wrapping them in plastic wrap and refrigerating for up to 2 days.
