I love a good egg roll. Like, a lot. I used to think that there was no way that I could ever duplicate something like an egg roll in my kitchen. Yes, I’ve made some cooking progress over the years! ;) Since figuring out how to make egg rolls a couple of years ago, I’ve made multiple different combinations of them!
This recipe is my favorite though!
Using just a few ingredients and a few different pans, you can make your own egg rolls as well!
Crispy Egg Rolls
-1 pound of ground turkey
-1 small onion, diced
-1 teaspoon garlic powder
-6 cups of shredded cabbage and carrots
-2 Tablespoons olive oil
-2 Tablespoons soy sauce
-2 Tablespoons oyster sauce
-Peanut oil for frying
-Sweet and Sour Sauce for dipping
In a pan, brown turkey with diced onions. Remove turkey from the pan. Add 2 Tablespoons of olive oil and add cabbage and carrots. Saute until cabbage and carrots become tender. Mix in turkey and onion mixture. Add soy sauce, oyster sauce and garlic powder. Mix until everything is combined. Remove pan from heat.
Lay egg roll wrapper on a cutting board. Spoon 1/3 cup of mixture onto wrapper and wrap up. Dip your finger in water and then run along the edge of the last fold. Seal your egg roll.
When all rolls are wrapped, heat 1/2 inch of peanut oil in a small saute pan. Add egg rolls 2-3 at a time and fry on all sides. Remove from oil when browned and allow to drain on a paper towel lined plate.
Allow to cool a bit (they hold the heat forever!!) and enjoy!
We always dip ours in sweet and sour sauce! So good!
I hope you have a wonderful Tuesday! I can’t believe it is the middle-ish of March already! This year is just flying by! I’m also excited to plant a few herbs and vegetables as the weather gets warmer…fingers crossed that I can keep them alive this year!
They look just like egg rolls from a Chinese Restaurant and sound simple enough to make at home. Yum – this would be a fun thing to make and my kiddos would love these!
I’ve tried to make egg rolls at home, but I always bake them and they don’t get the right crisp. I think I’ll take your cue and fry them next time!
Those look delicious – I cook mine in my deep fryer so they are never greasy – I need to make some more soon! Hope you are having a great week!
I love egg rolls. I’ve tried making spring rolls before, but never egg rolls. I feel like they really wouldn’t be any more complicated than the spring rolls are. I should definitely make some.
OMG those look delish.
