Ingredients (serves 4):
- 8 egg roll wrappers
- 1 can of tuna, drained and flaked
- 1/2 cup of shredded carrots
- 1/2 cup of chopped green onions
- 1/4 cup of soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon of sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon of cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon of water
- Vegetable oil for frying
Cooking Tips:
- Make sure to drain the tuna well to avoid excess moisture in the filling.
- Use a non-stick pan to cook the filling to prevent sticking.

2. In a separate bowl, mix the soy sauce and sesame oil.
3. Add the soy sauce mixture to the tuna mixture and stir well.
4. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry.
5. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add the tuna mixture. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
6. Add the cornstarch slurry to the pan and stir until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and let cool.
7. Place an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface and add 2 tablespoons of the tuna filling. Roll the wrapper tightly, tucking in the sides as you go.
