Pork And Cabbage Egg Rolls
Ingredients:
– 1/2 pound ground pork
– 2 cups shredded cabbage
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
– 1 teaspoon sesame oil
– 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 12 egg roll wrappers
– Oil for frying
Instructions:
1. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground pork until it’s no longer pink, breaking it up into crumbles with a spatula. Drain any excess fat from the pan.
2. Add the shredded cabbage and minced garlic to the skillet with the cooked pork. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the cabbage is slightly wilted.
3. Season the mixture with soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, ground ginger, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine all the flavors. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the ingredients to meld together. Remove the skillet from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
4. To assemble the egg rolls, lay out an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing towards you (like a diamond shape). Spoon a generous amount of the pork and cabbage filling onto the wrapper, towards the bottom corner.
5. Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, tucking it snugly. Roll the wrapper once, then fold in the sides to encase the filling completely. Continue rolling the wrapper upwards until you reach the top corner. Dip your finger in a little water and moisten the top corner to seal the egg roll.
6. Heat oil in a large skillet or deep fryer over medium-high heat. Carefully add the egg rolls in batches, seam side down, and fry until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides, turning occasionally for even cooking. This process typically takes 3-4 minutes per batch.
7. Once the egg rolls are cooked to a beautiful golden color, remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
8. Serve the Pork and Cabbage Egg Rolls hot with your favorite dipping sauce, like sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, or a tangy mustard dip. Enjoy the crunchy exterior and flavorful filling in every bite!
