Steps:
- Place the glass noodles in a large bowl and add enough hot water to cover. Let sit for 10 minutes, until softened. Drain the noodles and chop into ½-inch (1-cm) pieces.
- In a large bowl, mix together the chopped glass noodles, cabbage, carrots, scallions, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Toss until well combined.
- Then, fold in the chopped shrimp and ground pork until just incorporated.
- Place a spring roll wrapper on a clean work surface and add 3 tablespoons of filling to the center. Fold the bottom of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll. Lightly wet the exposed with your fingertip and continue rolling to seal the egg roll. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- Fill a deep skillet with ½ inch (1 cm) of vegetable oil and heat over medium-high heat until the oil reaches 325˚F (160˚C). Fry the egg rolls in batches of 1-2 at a time for 2½- 3 minutes on each side, until crispy and golden brown. Remove from oil and drain on a wire rack or plate lined with paper towels to absorb any extra oil.

Tips:
- To ensure an even cook and crispy texture, preheat your skillet or pan over medium-high heat before adding the egg rolls.
- For a healthier version, use whole-wheat or gluten-free wrappers.
- To make the egg rolls in advance, assemble them and then freeze them on a baking sheet. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag and store them for up to 2 months. When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 400°F and bake the frozen egg rolls for 15-20 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown.
- To add a spicy kick, use sriracha sauce or chili garlic sauce as a dipping sauce.
- For a vegetarian option, replace the eggs with tofu or tempeh.
