  • 0.5 cup cabbage shredded
  • 0.25 cup carrots shredded
  • 0.125 cup green onions thinly sliced

Preparation Steps

  • In a medium bowl, combine the chopped shrimp, shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, sliced green onions, minced garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, and ground ginger. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  • Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing towards you. Place about 2 tablespoons of the shrimp mixture onto the center of the wrapper.
  • Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling. Then, fold in the left and right corners. Moisten the top corner with a little water and roll up tightly to seal the egg roll.
  • Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot (about 350°F or 175°C), carefully add the egg rolls in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
  • Fry the egg rolls for 3-5 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Use tongs to turn them as needed.
  • Remove the egg rolls from the skillet and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  • Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

Dipping sauce suggestions include sweet chili sauce, soy-ginger sauce, or duck sauce.
