Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Start by gathering all of the ingredients setting aside the wrappers and shrimp and chicken.
- Here then going to dice and break up all the other ingredients so that they had small pieces you can either use a shredder or chop and diced up the vegetables small. Them all together.
- Put a pan on medium heat. It’s large enough to hold all of the ingredients, medium size pan or larger. add a little bit of oil to the bottom of the pan.
- What we like to do is to add the ingredients and couple handfuls at a time and start to mix so that they all get a little bit of oil on it and get covered while you’re mixing it in.
- once all the vegetables are added add the soy sauce and ginger, onion powder, and garlic powder that mix together once again
- let simmer for about five minutes covered once this is done, stirring again and taste test. Adjust as needed.
- let veggies cook how they become tender typically this takes about 20 minutes
- Once they become tender you’re going to want to dump out the excess moisture from the filling materials because if you don’t, they will make the wrappers too soggy and fall apart squeeze out the moisture.
- when you have strained the feeling, go ahead and break into two separate bowls, you can use the pan and one other bowl or if you just wanna have one kind of you can go ahead and the shrimp and the chicken to egg roll filling and then mixed together.
- Then you want to set up your eggroll wrapping station needs some water to seal the wrappers.
- if you’re able to get a large egg wrappers, then you can put up to half cup of filling and each one this may seem too much. It is close to the max amount that they can hold but if you want really big, this is the amount that we recommend typically we put anywhere from the half cup till about a fourth.
- With this we go thought two packets of wrappers if you’re doing a smaller amount , then you’re gonna go through a lot more wrappers quickly.
- once you have a few made suggest that you start frying them. We shallow fry with ours where you fill pan up with enough oil that it covers a half the egg rolls then turn them over when thrubsre golden in oil at 350
- Repeat, you have fried all of the eggrolls
Sauce
- in a small saucepan add water vinegar and sugar and ketchup, and mix together over medium heat continuously stirring tell it mixes together
- Mix ¼ cup water and corn starch to make slurry to help thicken up the sauce
- slowly add the slurry in to the into the sauce and becomes the slightly more liquidy than the sauce that you desire, as the sauce goes down it will thicken.

Notes
you don’t want to add too many eggrolls to the oil at one time as it cools down the oil makes the eggrolls more oily as they cook slower typically, we’re only able to add 3 to 4. They usually start only one at the time as it starts to heat up and also kind of control the heat as well.
like to make a few and then start frying. if you have somebody else and they can be wrapping while you fry that works out or if you can do both at the same time we find that that works best because if you don’t get all the moisture out over time they’ll start to go through the rappers, but if you can start frying them relatively soon after this, prevent the wrappers from becoming apart
If you want to try baking them or air frying smaller seems to work better if you’re going to bake them or if you’re gonna use an air fryer method, they all kind of the same way
