INSTRUCTIONS:

1. 1st Step – Prepare the Filling: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground pork or chicken until it’s no longer pink. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, then stir in the shredded cabbage, carrots, and green onions. Cook until the vegetables are tender-crisp, then season with soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
2. 2nd Step – Assemble the Egg Rolls: Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing towards you. Spoon a generous tablespoon of the filling onto the wrapper, then fold the bottom corner over the filling. Fold in the sides, then roll the wrapper tightly towards the remaining corner. Use a dab of water to seal the edges.
   • 3rd Step – Fry Until Golden: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the egg rolls to the hot oil, a few at a time, and fry until they’re golden brown and crispy on all sides. Use tongs to turn them occasionally for even cooking.
   • 4th Step – Drain and Serve: Once the egg rolls are cooked to perfection, transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Serve them hot and crispy with your favorite dipping sauces on the side.
