Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground pork
• 2 cups (shredded) Cabbage
• 1 cup (shredded) Carrot
• 4 stalks (finely chopped) Green onions
• 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 20 sheets Egg roll wrappers
• 1 large (beaten) Egg
• 4 cups (for frying) Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

In a large skillet or wok, cook the ground pork over medium heat, breaking it into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink. Drain any excess fat.

Step 2

Add the shredded cabbage, carrot, green onions, and minced garlic to the skillet. Stir and cook for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables soften slightly.

Step 3

Season the mixture with soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let the filling cool to room temperature.

Step 4

Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner facing you (so it looks like a diamond). Place about 2 tablespoons of the filling near the corner closest to you.

Step 5

Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the left and right corners to enclose the filling. Continue rolling tightly towards the top corner. Brush a little of the beaten egg on the final corner to seal the roll. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

Step 6

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep, heavy-bottomed pot or a deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).

Step 7

Carefully fry the egg rolls in batches, 4-5 at a time, for 3-4 minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cooked egg rolls to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 8

Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, or plum sauce.
