Tips:
- Prep Your Veggies: Before you start assembling your egg rolls, make sure your vegetables are prepped and ready to go. This includes washing, chopping, and cooking them if necessary.
- Use a Variety of Vegetables: Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables in your egg rolls. Some popular options include cabbage, carrots, celery, onions, and bell peppers. You can also add other vegetables like broccoli, zucchini, or mushrooms.
- Choose the Right Wrapper: Egg roll wrappers come in a variety of sizes and thicknesses. For this recipe, we recommend using square wrappers that are about 6 inches wide. You can find these wrappers in the Asian section of most grocery stores.
- Don't Overfill the Wrappers: When assembling your egg rolls, be careful not to overfill the wrappers. This will make them difficult to fold and seal properly.
- Fry or Bake: You can either fry or bake your egg rolls. If you're frying them, make sure to use a high-heat oil like vegetable oil or canola oil. If you're baking them, preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
