Servings: 10 egg rolls
Ingredients
- 10 - 12 Eggroll Wrappers
- 1 Red Peppers
- 1 Carrot
- 1/4 Head Cabbage
- 1 small - medium Onion
- A bunch optional sprouts
- 1 Small Butternut Squash
- Per taste salt
- Per taste Ground Black Pepper
- 1/2 Teaspoon Sesame Oil
- 1 full tablespoon Flour
- 2 Teaspoons water
- 1 Egg
- Per taste Breadcrumbs
- For deep frying Canola Oil
Instructions
- Slice the peppers into thin slices
- Cut the cabbage into thin slices
- Cut the onion into thin half circles
- Slice the carrot into thin stripes
- Cut the squash into thin stripes - without the core & leave the grainy part out.
- Place all the chopped vegetables in a bowl (now is your chance to put in the beansprouts) and mix it all together with the salt, pepper and sesame oil
- In a small bowl - mix the flour and water until a nice sooth texture has been created
- Take a "eggroll wrappers" and place it on a dry surface
- Take a bunch of the filling, squeeze all the liquids out and place 2cm from the edge of the leaf.
- Take the edge of the wrapper and cover the filling
- Take both the sides and close into the middle - that way the filling is now closed from 3 different sides
- Roll up to 2cm from the edge
- Paste the open part of the wrapper with the mix you made earlier and close up fully
- Place the egg roll on the side (lay it on the closed side)
- Now continue these methods until either the "cigar leaves" are finished or until the filling has finished
- Get a battered egg ready in a small bowl and on the side some breadcrumbs
- Dip all the egg rolls in the egg batter and then roll them in the breadcrumbs making sure that all the sides are covered - then place back on the side
- Continue this method with all the pieces
- Heat up the canola oil for the deep frying
- Fry the egg rolls in small groups - make sure they do not touch each other
- Fry for 4 minutes - until all sides are nicely browned
- If you notice that only one side is frying (egg roll have a tendency to float when trying to fry them!) simply flip them over with the help of two wooden spoons and force it to stay there for two minutes
- Place on kitchen towel to soak up the oils
- There you have it! Now serve it with sweet chili or teriyaki sauce...enjoy!
