Delicious Mini Egg Rolls Recipe for a Perfect Snack

Ingredients

Servings:
2
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup cooked chicken (or tofu for vegetarian option)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon ginger (grated)
  • 1 clove garlic (minced)
  • 1 package egg roll wrappers
  • 1 cup oil for frying (vegetable or canola oil)
  • to taste salt and pepper

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the Filling

    In a bowl, combine shredded cabbage, carrots, cooked chicken, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic.

    Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated.
  2. Fill the Wrappers

    Place a spoonful of the filling onto each egg roll wrapper. Roll tightly, folding in the sides.

    Use a little water to seal the edges.
  3. Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat oil over medium-high heat until hot.

    Test the oil by dropping in a small piece of wrapper; it should sizzle.
  4. Fry the Egg Rolls

    Carefully add the egg rolls to the hot oil, a few at a time, and fry until golden brown.

    Do not overcrowd the pan to maintain the oil temperature.
  5. Drain and Serve

    Remove egg rolls and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with dipping sauce of choice.

    Sweet and sour sauce pairs well with these egg rolls.
