Ingredients

    NOTE: These taste best when made in a Multi-cooker, but still taste great over a stove top

    Ingredients:

    1 Bag of Broccoli or Cole Slaw
    = Don't be afraid of these bags. They are quick and easy for salads on the go and limiting prep. Even better. They Freeze!

    1 cup shredded cabbage (Optional)
    = This is the filler of the egg roll
    = Don't like cabbage? Use another bag of Slaw

    1 bag of Mung Beans
    = Filler as well, they add crunch if added raw or a noodley taste when cooked
    = They freeze great as well

    Soy Sauce
    = Use Lite, or Normal. It only seems like you are using a ton, it is watered down with rice vinegar and honey

    Egg roll wrappers
    = Well without these they aren't really egg rolls

    Extras:

    Rice Vinegar
    = Adds a bit of tartness
    Honey
    = Adds sweetness and thickening to the filling.
    Vegetables
    = Shred in more carrots, cabbage, radishes, anything other then potatoes will do well here.

Directions

Step 0: Do not fear your deep frier. These egg rolls only spend about 2 to 5 minutes in the oil to cook the wrapper. You only need about 2-3 inches worth of oil to fry these beauties.

Sauce:
1 cup Soy Sauce (Lite or Normal)
2 tablespoons Rice Vinegar
1 table spoon Honey
1 half cup water


Filling:
Step 1: Wash and shake out Mung Beans without the washing they will give a 'dirt' like smell to the egg roll.

Step 2: Take bagged mix and shredded cabbage, mix with washed beans and toss in sauce.

=Multicooker: just add it all to the pot turn to 350 and let steam for 20 minutes

=Stove top: Add in half cup batches so not to overload, add another cup when the first batch is soften

Step 3: When soften and all the liquid is cooked out, remove from pan and place in large bowl to cool for 10 minutes.

Rolling the Egg Roll:

When filling is cool to the touch, take wraps from the fridge and set up working station. Fill the washed out multicooker and fill with oil, set to 400 . Have a large pan or plate to hold wrapped egg rolls.

It is easier to make all the egg rolls then fry them then roll and fry each one.

Step One: Turn wrapper on it's side to have the points going up and down, One point towards you.

Step Two: Place 2 tablespoons worth of filling over middle of the wrapper, try to place it just under the left-right points.

Step Three: Wrap upwards with bottom point
Step Four: Cross left-right points over bottom point
Step Five: Roll upward and flatten to a tube shape

Repeat until all wrappers are used.

Fry egg rolls in hot oil until just golden brown, place on a cooling rack to drip off extra oil.


To Store, if any remain.
Wait until they are entirely cool. Place in a bag with a paper towel underneath them, this will take in any extra oil and keep the egg rolls from becoming mushy. Do not re-warm! Eat cold.

ENJOY!
