Instruction

• Alternative Pan Fry Method: If you don’t have access to an air fryer, you can make these egg rolls using a traditional pan fry method
• Add enough oil to a medium skillet with high walls so the oil is about 1/2 inch up the side of the skillet
• Heat oil on medium high heat until it reaches 350°F
• Add egg rolls and fry for 3 to 4 minutes, flip, and fry for another 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown
• Remove and let them drain and cool on a few paper towels
• Cook the filling: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil along with the ground pork or chicken
• Break apart the meat with a spatula or wooden spoon as it cooks
• Cook until the meat is cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes
• Add garlic, ginger, carrot, scallions, and cabbage
• Continue to cook until cabbage wilts down and is soft, another 3 to 4 minutes, stirring regularly
• Season the filling with soy sauce and rice wine vinegar, and take off the heat to cool
• (This filling can be made in advance
• ) Assemble the egg rolls: Place a single egg roll wrapper on a dry surface with one point of the square facing you (like a diamond)
• Place about 1/4 cup of the egg roll filling mixture in the middle of the wrapper
• Dip your fingers in water and run around the edges of the wrapper
• Then fold the edges of the wrapper over the center and start rolling the egg roll away from you to form a tight cylinder
• Place on a plate and repeat until you are out of filling
• You should get at least a dozen egg rolls
• Air fry the egg rolls: Place the egg rolls in the basket of your air fryer
• Spray or brush them lightly with oil
• Add as many as you can without stacking the egg rolls, making sure they don’t touch
• Air needs to circulate around them
• Brush the egg rolls lightly with oil
• Place the basket in the air fryer and turn the air fryer to 350°F
• Cook for 6 to 7 minutes, then flip the egg rolls, spray or brush with oil a second time on the bottom side, and cook for another 4 to 5 minutes
• Finished egg rolls should be golden brown and crispy! Serve immediately
