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!!

Time 45m

Yield 20 egg rolls

Number Of Ingredients 14

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!

I've made these egg rolls several times and they always turn out great. I like to add a little bit of Sriracha sauce to the filling for a bit of spice.
