Fried Egg Rolls Recipe
Cook Time:
Prep Time: 15-20 minutes
Cook Time: 10-15 minutes (for frying)
Total: 25-35 minutes
Instructions:
For the Egg Rolls:
Prepare the Filling:
In a large skillet, heat a little vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the ground pork (or chicken) to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
Stir in the shredded cabbage, carrots, and chopped green onions. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.
Add the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, ground ginger, and black pepper to the mixture. Stir to combine and cook for 2 more minutes to let the flavors meld. Remove from heat and let the filling cool down slightly.
Assemble the Egg Rolls:
Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface, with one corner facing you (diamond shape).
Add 2-3 tablespoons of the filling near the center of the wrapper.
Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides tightly, and roll it up towards the top corner. Seal the edge with a little water to ensure the egg roll stays closed.
Repeat until all the egg rolls are assembled.
Fry the Egg Rolls:
Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet or wok over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Carefully add the egg rolls to the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the egg rolls from the oil and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate.
For the Dip:
Prepare the Komodo Black Hot Sauce Dip:
Simply pour Komodo Black Hot Sauce into a small bowl. You can adjust the amount depending on your preferred spice level.
Serve:
Serve the crispy egg rolls hot, alongside the Komodo Black Hot Sauce for dipping.
