Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound ground pork
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 quart peanut oil for frying
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons water
2 cups shredded cabbage
2 ounces shredded carrots
8 (7 inch square) egg roll wrappers
2 tablespoons sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Season pork with ginger and garlic powder and mix thoroughly. Heat mixture in a medium skillet, stirring, until pork is cooked through and no longer pink. Set aside.
  • In another large skillet heat oil to about 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) or medium high heat. While oil is heating, combine flour and water in a bowl until they form a paste. In a separate bowl combine the cabbage, carrots and reserved pork mixture. Mix all together.
  • Lay out one egg roll skin with a corner pointed toward you. Place about a 1/4 to 1/3 cup of the cabbage, carrot and pork mixture on egg roll paper and fold corner up over the mixture. Fold left and right corners toward the center and continue to roll. Brush a bit of the flour paste on the final corner to help seal the egg roll.
  • Place egg rolls into heated oil and fry, turning occasionally, until golden brown. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels or rack. Put on serving plate and top with sesame seeds if desired.

1-inch grated fresh ginger

1 carrot, cut into 1-inch julienne strips
1 small red pepper, cut into 1-inch julienne strips
1 cup Napa cabbage, shredded
1/4 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1 to 2 tablespoons sesame oil
20 wonton wrappers covered loosely with a damp paper towel to prevent drying
10 shrimps, cooked and minced
1/3 cup lite soy sauce
1/3 cup rice vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1 to 2 teaspoons sesame oil
Pinch of red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • In a wok or skillet, stir-fry the ginger and garlic in 2 tablespoons of oil until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add scallions, carrots, and red pepper and stir-fry over high heat for 2 minutes.
  • In a bowl, combine the chicken broth, soy sauce, and sugar. Add the Napa cabbage and broth mixture. Bring to a boil and simmer 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.
  • Fill and roll the egg roll wrappers, using 1 tablespoon of filling for each roll. Working with 1 wonton wrapper at a time, place the wrapper with one corner of the diamond closest to you. Place 1 teaspoon of the filling in the center of the wrapper. Roll the corner closest to you over the filling. Brush the top corner with water. Fold in the sides of the wonton and continue rolling the egg roll up until it is closed. Press to seal, set aside, and continue with the remaining ingredients.
  • 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, with dipping sauce.

IS IT EGG ROLL OR EGGROLL?



Is It Egg Roll or Eggroll? image

This recipe was a long time coming. I have been working on it for about 6 months. With the help of Bratty I was finally able to put it down on paper. It is all about the prep, chop before you start. This is not a whip it up in 10 minutes recipe but it makes enough for several meals. The number of egg rolls or eggrolls you get depends on if you add the bean sprouts. My friends and I get together and make them by the hundreds, of course that required more wine! Feel free to leave out any ingredient you do not like, there are no rules with these. Hope y'all like em.

Time 1h45m

Yield 25 eggrolls

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb ground pork
1 large onion, chopped
6 tablespoons garlic, minced (at least)
1 -2 teaspoon fresh ginger (no powder please)
3 big carrots (chopped or shredded)
1/2-3/4 head napa cabbage (shredded or chopped,regular will work fine)
1 -2 cup bean sprouts (fresh please, leave them out if you do not like them)
water chestnut (optional)
celery (optional)
cilantro (optional)
hot pepper, chopped (optional)
salt and pepper
25 egg roll wraps or 25 lumpia skins, the thin ones, i get them in the freezer section of my local Asian market

Steps:

  • Brown the meat in a large pan.
  • Add onion, garlic, ginger, carrots and some salt and pepper halfway through.
  • Remove from heat when carrots are tender.
  • Stir in cabbage and bean sprouts, this will help cool the mixture down.
  • Taste it now and see if it needs any more salt, good huh.
  • Drain this mixture VERY WELL, moisture is you enemy in this recipe.
  • I put it in a colander with a plate on top and a weight.
  • It will look like there are more veggies than meat, that is a good thing.
  • Blot it with a paper towel, it does not have to be bone dry, just not puddling and it needs to be cool before rolling.
  • We are almost there, have a glass of wine while you are waiting for it to cool!
  • Stir occasionally in the colander to get the hiding moisture.
  • Lay the wrapper so that one point is towards you.
  • Put about about 3 tablespoons of mixture across the wrapper.
  • Here is where I add a bit of cilantro, green onion, chopped hot pepper.
  • Fold the point that is pointing at you up over the mixture.
  • Now fold the corner on the right over that, now the point on the left and begin to roll till you get to the end.
  • Moisten the last point and finish the roll.
  • Freeze these individually on a cookie sheet covered with plastic wrap than put in freezer bags unless you are eating them right away.
  • To cook them remove to a cookie sheet (do not thaw) and spray them with Pam, Bratty used garlic flavored and said it was good.
  • Bake at 350 for about 10 minutes, turn over and spray again and bake another 10 to 15 minutes.
  • They will not get all brown like fried ones but they will be crispy and delicious.

Authentic Chinese Egg Rolls (from a Chinese person) image

My mom is the best cook ever and I am a picky eater. If I like this, then you will. This is very authentic because my family is Chinese and I am too. This recipe is at least 300 years old in the Ling family.

Time 2h20m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 teaspoons vegetable oil
3 eggs, beaten
1 medium head cabbage, finely shredded
½ carrot, julienned
1 (8 ounce) can shredded bamboo shoots
1 cup dried, shredded wood ear mushroom, rehydrated
1 pound Chinese barbequed or roasted pork, cut into matchsticks
2 green onions, thinly sliced
2 ½ teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
½ teaspoon monosodium glutamate (MSG)
1 (14 ounce) package egg roll wrappers
1 egg white, beaten
4 cups oil for frying, or as needed

Steps:

  • Heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium heat. Pour in beaten eggs and cook, without stirring, until firmed. Flip the eggs over and cook for an additional 20 seconds to firm the other side. Set egg pancake aside to cool, then slice into thin strips.
  • Heat the remaining vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Stir in cabbage and carrot; cook for 2 minutes to wilt. Add bamboo, mushroom, pork, green onions, soy sauce, salt, sugar, and MSG; continue cooking until the vegetables soften, about 6 minutes. Stir in sliced egg, then spread mixture out onto a pan, and refrigerate until cold, about 1 hour.
  • To assemble the egg rolls, place a wrapper onto your work surface with one corner pointing towards you. Place about 3 tablespoons of cooled filling in a heap onto the bottom third of the wrapper. Brush a little beaten egg white onto the top two edges of the wrapper, then fold the bottom corner over the filling and roll firmly to the halfway point. Fold the left and right sides snugly over the egg roll, then continue rolling until the top corners seal the egg roll with the egg white. Repeat with remaining egg roll wrappers, covering finished egg rolls with plastic wrap to keep from drying out.
  • Heat about 6-inches of oil in a wok or deep-fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Fry egg rolls 3 or 4 at a time until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

EGG ROLL WRAPPERS



Egg Roll Wrappers image

Homemade egg roll wrappers can be a real treat for the self-sufficient cook! Getting the wok to the correct temperature may be a challenge. If the batter sets before the wrapper is fully formed, the wok is too hot; if the edges are thin, it's too cool. Experiment and enjoy!
