Ingredients (serves 4):
- 12 egg roll wrappers
- 1 pound of shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 cup of shredded cabbage
- 1 cup of shredded carrots
- 1/2 cup of chopped green onions
- 1 tablespoon of soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon of ginger powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1 egg, beaten
- Vegetable oil for frying
Cooking Tips:
- Make sure to pat the shrimp dry before cooking to prevent excess moisture.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove the cooked shrimp and vegetables from the pan to prevent excess oil from getting into the egg rolls.
- Don't overfill the egg roll wrappers, or they may burst during frying.
Instructions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the shrimp, cabbage, carrots, green onions, soy sauce, oyster sauce, garlic powder, ginger powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
2. Lay an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface with one corner facing you. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the shrimp mixture onto the center of the wrapper.
3. Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll the wrapper tightly, and brush the top corner with the beaten egg to seal.
4. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
5. Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the egg rolls to the pan, seam side down.
6. Fry the egg rolls for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
7. Remove the egg rolls from the pan with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
