Ingredients (serves 4):

- 1 lb ground pork

- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 1/2 cup shredded cabbage
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 8 egg roll wrappers
- Vegetable oil for frying


Cooking Tips:

- Make sure to use ground pork that is not too lean, as it will be too dry.
- Use fresh egg roll wrappers for the best results.
- Don't overfill the egg rolls, or they will burst during frying.
Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, mix together the ground pork, Chinese five-spice powder, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch.
2. Add the shredded carrots, cabbage, green onions, and cilantro to the bowl and mix well.
3. Lay an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface and spoon about 2 tablespoons of the pork mixture onto the center of the wrapper.
4. Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll up tightly.
5. Repeat with the remaining egg roll wrappers and filling.
6. Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F.
7. Fry the egg rolls in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per batch.
8. Drain the egg rolls on paper towels and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
