VEGETARIAN (OR NOT) EGG ROLLS

Vegetarian (Or Not) Egg Rolls image

I LOVE these egg rolls! I am a vegetarian (most of the time) so I use tofu in this recipe. This recipe is flexible; you can change the proportions or even ingredients to however many egg rolls you want (or how many wrappers you have left over). I think I first got this recipe from the Azumaya tofu wrapper package, but I don't deep fry it. Hope you like it!!

Ingredients

1 lb ground chicken or 1 lb baby shrimp
1 teaspoon minced ginger
2 cups finely chopped cabbage (I use the bagged coleslaw mix at the grocery store)
1/4 lb bean sprouts
1/2 cup shredded carrot (this is included in the coleslaw mix, so if you use the mix you could omit the carrot)
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
3 green onions, finely chopped
1 (16 ounce) package large square egg roll wraps
2 -3 egg whites
nonstick cooking spray
sweet and sour sauce (for dipping)
soy sauce (for dipping)
mustard (for dipping)
catsup (for dipping)

Steps:

Stir-fry tofu (or meat) and ginger in a large skillet until brown (about 2-3 minutes).
Add cabbage, bean sprouts, green onions, and carrots (or just the sprouts and coleslaw mix).
Cook for two minutes more.
Stir in oyster sauce and let mixture cool.
Use two tablespoons of filling for each wrapper.
Fold up egg rolls, envelope-style.
Tuck in all corners, and seal with some brushed-on egg whites.
Brush rolls with egg whites to make them crispy since we aren't frying them.
"Fry"the rolls a few at a time in a skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until golden.
Serve warm with the above-mentioned dipping sauces.
Enjoy!

These egg rolls were a disappointment. The filling was dry and the wrappers were soggy. I won't be making them again.

Meh. I wasn't impressed with these egg rolls. The filling was bland and the wrappers were too thick and chewy.

Not bad! The egg rolls were crispy and the filling was tasty. However, I found the recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices and seasonings to give it more flavor.

These egg rolls were easy to make and turned out great! I used a store-bought egg roll wrapper and the filling was flavorful and delicious.

I made these egg rolls for a potluck and they were a huge success. Everyone raved about them and asked for the recipe. I'll definitely be making them again soon.

Absolutely delicious! I followed the recipe exactly and the egg rolls turned out perfectly crispy and flavorful. My family loved them and they'll definitely be a regular in our menu rotation.
