Cooking Instructions

  • In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground chicken with minced garlic, minced ginger, salt, and pepper until fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes — no pink remains!
  • Add shredded cabbage, carrots, and sliced green onion; stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, allowing the vegetables to soften and flavor the mixture.
  • Remove from heat and let the filling cool slightly to prevent the wrappers from tearing.
  • In a small bowl, mix flour and water until smooth to create a sealing paste.
  • Lay out an egg roll wrapper. Place 2 tablespoons of filling at one end, fold, and roll tightly, sealing the edges with the paste.
  • In a deep pan, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C) for optimum frying temperature.
  • Fry egg rolls in batches for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
  • Drain on paper towels and serve hot.
