Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork
- 2 cups green cabbage
- 1 cup carrot
- 1 bunch green onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon ginger
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 20 pieces egg roll wrappers
- 1 large egg
- 2 cups vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Finely shred the green cabbage and carrot. Thinly slice the green onions. Mince the garlic and ginger.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground pork until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Add the garlic, ginger, cabbage, carrot, and green onions to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Beat the egg in a small bowl to use as an egg wash.
Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with a corner facing you, like a diamond. Place about 2 tablespoons of the pork filling at the corner.
Fold the corner closest to you over the filling, then fold the sides in. Roll tightly towards the far corner, brushing a little beaten egg onto the corner to seal the roll. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
In a deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat to 350°F (175°C).
Fry the egg rolls in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
