These are great to pre-make and put in the freezer. They are kind of stinky to make though, so I try to do two batches all in one day and freeze a bunch of them. They don't last long once served!

Ingredients
  • 6 c. cabbage, coarsely chopped
  • (you could use the cole-slaw mix in bags, too.)
  • 1 c. cooked meat (pork, shrimp, chicken, beef)
  • 3 scallions
  • 1/2 tsp. red wine, optional
  • 1 pkg. egg roll skins
  • 2 carrots, grated
  • 1/2 c. bamboo shoots--sliced into strips
  • 2 tbsp. soy sauce
  • 1/2 c. chicken broth
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. ground black pepper

Directions
  1. Into a large frying pan, place about 3 T. oil. Let oil get hot.
  2. Throw everything into the pan, and saute until well blended and coated with oil/wilted just a tad bit---not completely shrunken, but just reduced by a bit. You don't want to over-cook. You're just looking to wilt everything a bit before the frying stage!
  3. Remove from heat, pour vegetable/meat mixture into a colander and let drain into another bowl in the fridge until cool enough to handle.
  4. Prepare wrappers by laying out on waxed/parchment paper.
  5. Wet edges of each wrapper individually with a fingertip or small brush dipped in water.
  6. Place approximately 3 tablespoons mixture in each wrapper, and seal egg rolls.
  7. At this point, you can either deep fry for a couple minutes, or fry in about a half-inch of hot oil until golden brown.
  8. Let cool to room temp and freeze in freezer bags.
  9. To reheat: Place in 400 degree oven for about 20 minutes.
  10. Makes approximate 30-40 egg rolls.

O.K. Knox, I'm confused. Do you need both egg roll skins and wonton wrappers? Same thing?


Ooops! Jenniferbyrdez, looks like I'm going to do an edit! Thanks!
(you just need one. either one would work!)

Thanks.


Think I'm gonna have to try this. And yes it sounds like it might smell a wee bit to make.


This was really good. Wrapping the egg rolls reminded my of shucking clams. Time consuming lol. Didn't smell near as bad as I thought it would either. The shrimp and crab I used smelled worse then the cabbage


I love egg rolls and this sounds like a great recipe. I'm bookmarking this to make soon. Thanks again! =)


Oh, Volki! I'm so glad you enjoyed them! Yes, they do take a bit of time. They're great for appetizers, etc. I feel it's better to have them like this than from the restaurant, because I can control the ingredients. Thanks so much for the comment!

MMMMmmmmmm......EGGROLLS!


I love egg rolls but I have never made any. I will try this recipe.


I love to make my own eggrolls! And if cabbage is a lil stinky, small price to pay. Everyone loves them in the end.


OOOOOH..I can make these now and not have to worry about the smell because I can keep all my windows open at this time of the year. Thanks for a recipe that I can make and freeze..great for my hectic family's life! 5 for you.


Yummmmmmmm


I have a BBQ pork egg roll recipe on here that is very similar, so the other night when I had leftover chicken, I made a batch of each. I added some red pepper also, because I had it leftover with the chicken. These were delicious.
