Easy Egg Rolls (Two Cooking Methods) image

I'm always looking for something different and fun. A good recipe to use up leftover meats, too. Adapted from Southern Living, but added a baking method to reduce calories and make healthier. The fried method is so much tastier, but the baking method is a good pinch hitter for those counting calories...which I am. ;-) See this complimentary dipping sauce...Recipe #412580

Time 35m

Yield 16-18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (16 ounce) package shredded coleslaw mix
1 cup chopped cooked meat, poultry or 1 cup shrimp
1 1/2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon seasoned pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 (16 ounce) package egg roll wraps
vegetable oil (for frying) or cooking spray, for optional baking method

Steps:

  • Stir together the first 6 ingredients.
  • Brush water around outer edge of each egg roll wrapper. Spoon 1/3 cup filling in center of each egg roll wrapper. Fold bottom corner over filling, tucking tip of corner under filling; fold left and right corners over filling. Tightly roll filled end toward remaining corner; gently pressing to seal.
  • Frying Method: Pour oil to depth of 3 inches in a dutch oven; heat to 375 degrees. Fry egg rolls in batches 3-4 minutes or until golden brown; drain on paper towels. Serve immediately.
  • Baking Method: Preheat oven 425 degrees. Spray each roll, front and back, with cooking spray or lightly brush with a pastry brush vegetable oil. Bake for 10-14 minutes turning about halfway through until lightly browned. Serve immediately.
