EGG ROLL WRAPPERS

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!

Time 40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 egg, beaten
¾ cup cold water
¼ teaspoon salt
⅞ cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons peanut oil

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together egg, cold water and salt. Mix in all-purpose flour 1/3 at a time. Allow the mixture to stand 15 minutes at room temperature.
  • Heat a wok over high heat. Remove from heat and thinly coat with 1 tablespoon peanut oil. Reduce heat to low. While wok is still warm, pour 1/4 of the egg mixture in an approximately 8 inch circle. Rotate wok quickly to spread an even layer of batter. Cook over low heat 45 seconds to 1 minute, until bottom is golden brown and edges begin to curl. Carefully remove from heat and place on a paper towel, golden brown side down.
  • Repeat the wok procedure with remaining batter, 1/4 at a time. Rub wok with remaining tablespoon of peanut oil after the second wrapper has been made.
  • Allow the wrappers to cool completely. Cut wrappers in half to use for egg rolls.

Time 1h

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 large egg, lightly beaten (set aside a small amount for sealing)
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup very cold water

Steps:

  • Combine ingredients to make a dough.
  • Cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • Knead until smooth and elastic.
  • Divide into 16 pieces.
  • Roll into 6 inch squares.
  • (Dough should be very thin).
  • Stack rolled squares separately with wax paper between each one.

  • Fill by making a line of your favorite filling about 1/2 from top and side edges.
  • Fold in each side over filling.
  • Brush on a small amount of saved egg along remaining side edges and the bottom edge.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality wonton wrappers: Look for wrappers that are thin, pliable, and have a smooth surface.
  • Keep the wrappers covered with a damp cloth or plastic wrap to prevent them from drying out.
  • Work with the wrappers one at a time to prevent them from sticking together.
  • If the wrappers become too dry, you can sprinkle them with a little water to make them more pliable.
  • Be careful not to overfill the wrappers, or they will be difficult to seal.
  • To seal the wrappers, brush the edges with water or egg white, then press them together firmly.
  • Cook the egg rolls according to the recipe instructions. They can be fried, baked, or air-fried.
