Step by Step Method
Step 1
Stir-fry meat and ginger in skillet over high heat until lightly browned. (2-3) minutes.
Step 2
Add cabbage, bean sprouts, carrots and green onions to skillet, cook until cabbage is done. About 3-5 minutes if heat is high enough.
Step 3
Stir in soy sauce. Remove from heat and let mixture cool for 10 minutes.
Step 4
Use 2 tablespoons filling for each egg roll.
Step 5
Lay wrapper on counter with one of the points facing up, like a diamond.
Step 6
Put 2 tablespoons of mixture in the middle of the diamond in a rectangle. Do not go to the edges, just in the middle.
Step 7
Fold the bottom of the wrapper corner up over the mixture.
Step 8
Fold in the side corners over the mound.
Step 9
Brush the top corner of the diamond with water and roll up wrap tightly to enclose the filling, sealing roll with the top flap.
Step 10
Place on a plate until all are assembled.
Step 11
In a large skillet, heat oil to 350-375 degrees and place rolls flap down, a few at a time in pan.
Step 12
Turn occasionally until golden. 30 to 60 seconds. They brown quickly if grease is hot. Drain on paper towels.
Step 13
Baking option: Be warned- They are no where near as good as the fried ones. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place rolls on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Lightly brush the tops with olive oil and bake until golden. (10-12 minutes).
Step 14
Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce!
