Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 6-inch square egg roll wrappers (approximately)
  • Cooking oil such as vegetable oil or peanut oil
  • Filling:
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, peeled and minced
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • 4 cups shredded cabbage
  • 2 cups carrot, julienned
  • 4 scallions, finely chopped
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground white pepper

Instructions

  1. Heat sesame oil in a pan over medium heat. Add ginger and garlic, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
  2. Add cabbage, carrots, and scallions. Cook for 4-5 minutes until vegetables soften but still have some crunch.
  3. Mix in soy sauce, sugar, salt, and white pepper. Cook 1 minute more, then transfer to a bowl and cool for 10 minutes.
  4. Place an egg roll wrapper diagonally on a work surface. Add 2 tablespoons filling in the center, leaving 2 inches free on each side.
  5. Fold the bottom corner over filling, then fold side corners inward. Continue rolling upward, sealing the top corner with water.
  6. Heat 1/2 inch of oil in a large pan to 350°F. Fry egg rolls in batches, 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown.
  7. Drain on paper towels and serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

Nutrition facts are estimates and may vary based on ingredients used, portion sizes, and preparation methods. For crispier results, ensure oil is hot enough and don’t overcrowd the pan. These egg rolls can be air-fried at 380°F for 6-8 minutes or baked at 425°F for 15-20 minutes if preferred.
