Thrifty Recipe – Egg Rolls

You will need :

• One package of egg roll wrappers ( found in produce section at most stores)
• Bag of Shredded cabbage or one small head, cut into fine shreds
• 4 green onions chopped
• 3/4 cups celery chopped
• 1/2 cup shredded carrots ( super fine I use a veggie peeler, to shred them)
• 1 -2 cup cooked sausage ( I only use one cup but if you like more meat add 2)
• 2 Tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 large egg (raw)

Mix above ingredients together in bowl

This is the brand of wrappers my local Walmart sells.

Add filling to the middle of the egg roll wrapper

Fold bottom corner up and pull towards bottom, till snug.

Fold corners in to make it look like a little envelope.  If you rub a little  water on the corners it till make them stick closed.

Roll up, try to keep as tight as you can.

Add a little water to the end to keep the flap shut

Do this with the whole package of wrappers

At this point you can deep fry, pan fry or bake them in the oven.  I pan fried them ( about a minute on each side).  We like our filling to still have a little crunch so we do not cook the veggies ( it cooks enough when pan frying) …but if you want to you can stir fry the veggie filling for about 3 minutes before you add it to the wrappers.

We like to eat ours with Sweet and Sour sauce ( will post recipe tomorrow), wasabi  paste, and honey.  Hope you enjoy!

You can make these for much less then they cost premade…..and we think they are much better home made as well!
