Ingredients

  • 1 1 lb ground pork or 1 lb ground chicken
  • 1 teaspoon minced ginger (or a little more)
  • 2 cups of finely chopped cabbage
  • 1/4 lb bean sprouts
  • 1/2 cup of shredded carrot
  • 3 green onions, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce (usually can be found at the grocery, but you can check your local Asian market)
  • black pepper
  • 20 large square egg roll wraps
  • vegetable oil (for frying)
  • your favorite sweet and sour sauce

Method

  • Stir fry meat & ginger in a wide skillet over high heat until lightly browned, 2-3 minutes.
  • Add cabbage, bean sprouts, carrot & green onions; cook 2 minutes.
  • Stir in oyster sauce and season with black pepper.
  • Remove from heat & let mixture cool.
  • Use 2 tablespoons for each egg roll.
  • To Wrap: place filling diagonally on wrapper, fold corner over filling, roll roughly half-way to cover filling, fold up both sides roughly against filling; moisten ends of last flap with water, roll over flap to seal; lay flap side down until ready to cook.
  • Deep fry in oil (it says 350, if you use an electric wok), I do it in a cast iron skillet on the stove.
