BEST PORK AND/OR SHRIMP EGG ROLLS
From the American-Chinese food menu, this is the most authentic recipe for egg rolls we've seen. You can make pork egg rolls, shrimp egg rolls, combos, or half of them pork, half of them shrimp. Simply adjust the amounts of pork/shrimp to your liking. These freeze well and are great for OAMC. You can use ground pork, but for the best flavor, use leftover roast pork or rib meat, especially bbq'd. A great idea is to purchase a small order of ribs from the local chinese resteraunt, and cut and dice the meat from the bones for this recipe, or better still, try Recipe #329856 :)

Steps:
- In a wok set over moderately high heat, add the ground ginger, onion, and celery and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add the cabbage and bean sprouts and stir fry 2-3 minutes more, or until vegetables are slightly softened. Add the pork and/or shrimp and stir-fry 1 minute more.
- Add the chicken stock and sugar, bring the mixture to a boil and stir in the cornstarch mixture. Simmer until lightly thickened. Stir in sesame oil, salt and pepper to taste.
- Have 1 cup water at a boil. Remove from heat and whisk in cornstarch mixture.

- Heat oil to 350 degrees F. Fry egg rolls, in small batches, turning often, for about 4 minutes, or until golden brown. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
PORK/SHRIMP EGG ROLLS
Found in a 1969 chinese cookbook published by Time/Life books. Of all the egg rolls I've ever had in Chinese restaurants or made myself these are my absolute favorite. Although the recipe is entitled "Pork/Shrimp", chicken works great as well (or any combination of the 3 or any of the 3 alone). Though I've never tried it, I think leaving out the meat would make super vegetarian egg rolls as well.

QUICK MOROCCAN SHRIMP SKILLET
When my niece was attending West Point, she was sent to Morocco for five months. I threw her a going-away party with Moroccan decorations, costumes and cuisine, including this saucy shrimp dish. Whenever I make it now, I think of her and I smile. -Barbara Lento, Houston, Pennsylvania

TURKEY AND SHRIMP EGG ROLLS
I made these with leftover turkey and shrimp from our Christmas dinner. I had plenty of crispy turkey skin, since I fried the turkey, but this can be replaced by crispy chicken skin using the directions below.

Steps:
- If you don't already have crispy turkey skin or chicken skin, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place parchment sheet or a Silpat on a baking sheet, sprinkle skin with kosher salt and pepper, and cover skin with a second baking sheet so it doesn't curl up. Heat for 20 minutes, rotate the sheet, and cook for another 20 minutes. Remove from oven. When cool, dice skin and set aside.
- Stir-fry the ginger and garlic on medium heat in 1 tablespoon of oil until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add green onions, carrots, cabbage, and brussels sprouts and stir-fry for 5 more minutes.
- In a bowl, combine the chicken broth, Chinkiang vinegar, and sugar. Add mixture to the pan and bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are soft. Add sesame oil, cool for at least 15 minutes, and strain.
- Fold in the minced shrimp, turkey, and crispy turkey skin.
- Fill and roll the eggroll wrappers, wetting the edges with water to help them wrapping stick. Apply water to any loose flaps in the eggroll to make them stick.
- In a skillet set over moderately high heat, heat the remaining oil and saute the egg rolls until golden brown on all sides, using tongs to turn them. Serve when cool enough to eat.
- Combine dipping sauce ingredients and serve.
