Time 45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 cups cabbage, shredded
1 carrot, shredded
½ cup fresh bean sprouts
1 celery stalk, diced
2 tablespoons chopped onion
1 (4 ounce) can shrimp, drained
2 tablespoons soy sauce
⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
black pepper to taste
1 egg, beaten
cornstarch
20 egg roll wrappers
vegetable oil for frying

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix together cabbage, carrots, sprouts, celery, and onion. Stir in shrimp, soy sauce, garlic powder, and black pepper.
  • Pour beaten egg into a skillet placed over medium heat; cook flat and thin, flipping once, until done. Remove from skillet, cool, and chop finely. Stir egg into cabbage mixture. Sprinkle top with cornstarch, mix, and allow to sit 10 minutes.
  • Mix 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoons cold water. Set aside.
  • Place 2 or 3 tablespoons of the shrimp mixture into the center of an egg roll skin. Dip a spoon into the water and cornstarch mixture, and moisten all corners but the bottom corner. Fold the egg roll skin from the bottom over the mixture, making a tight tube of the shrimp mixture. Fold corners in from the sides, and press to stick against folded roll. Then roll the rest of the way. Repeat with remaining egg roll wrappers.
  • Pour vegetable oil into a deep frying pan to a depth of 3 or 4 inches, and heat oil to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Carefully place egg rolls into hot oil, and fry until golden brown. Remove to paper towels.

Time 45m

Yield 20-24 egg rolls, 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb ground beef
1 package shredded cabbage (angel hair if you can find it)
1 package shredded carrot
salt and pepper
garlic powder
1 -2 package egg roll wrap
1 egg
canola oil (for frying)
Grey Poupon Dijon Mustard

Steps:

  • Fry the ground beef with the salt and pepper and garlic powder until the meat is completely browned.
  • Make sure to add a lot of the salt and pepper and garlic powder.
  • This needs to have a strong flavor because you'll be frying it with other ingredients.
  • Don't put so much in that you can't eat it, but you want to really taste it.
  • Once you are done getting the flavor right, get a LARGE bowl and put the shredded cabbage and carrots in it and then add the ground beef on top.
  • Mix together completely and let sit for about 15 minutes.
  • I do that so the mixture will soften and I can roll them more easily.
  • Check the mixture after it sits to make sure the flavor is still there and really stands out.
  • If not, add more of the salt and pepper and garlic powder.
  • It's really up to your taste buds, but this is what I've done and I get RAVE reviews.
  • Heat up your oil for frying in a deep fryer.
  • Follow the manufacturer's instructions for how much oil to add, but always make sure you don't fill it to the top so you don't get hurt.
  • I usually only fill about half of the fryer.
  • Crack an egg into a small bowl to make a wash for sealing the egg roll wraps.
  • Take a wrap and put about 1-2 teaspoons of the meat mixture onto the wrap.
  • Wrap the roll as shown on the package, remembering to seal with the egg wash.
  • I try to wrap my rolls tightly, but I don't always do that so well.
  • Once you are done wrapping, place the egg rolls carefully into the oil about 2-3 at a time.
  • Cook them until they are blond in color.
  • Don't let them get too dark.
  • Take them out and let drain on paper towels.
  • You're done! I serve mine with Grey Poupon for dipping. yummy!
  • Others might enjoy soy sauce! These also freeze very well, that is of course, if you have any left! I make a bunch for myself and have them for lunch.
  • Just pop them in the microwave for about 1 minute, and you're done.
