- 1/2 cup chopped green onions
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 egg, beaten
- Oil for frying
Cooking Tips:
- Make sure to use fresh egg roll wrappers for the best results.
- Do not overfill the egg rolls, as this can cause them to burst during frying.
- Use a deep-fry thermometer to ensure that the oil is at the right temperature for frying.
Instructions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, cabbage, carrots, green onions, cilantro, soy sauce, fish sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Mix well.
2. Lay an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the chicken 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 oil in a deep fryer or heavy-bottomed pot to 375°F.
6. Fry the egg rolls in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per batch.
