Egg rolls!!!




Although it is a deep fried dish I have a weakness for spring rolls and egg rolls! I think it is fine to eat it occasionally to treat yourself. So this thanksgiving as we were at home all by ourselves, I decided to try making these egg rolls. Very simple recipe and comes out delicious .

You will need:
Egg roll wraps( store bought) / you could use spring roll wraps instead too!
Oil for frying

For the filling:

1 pack extra firm tofu cut into very small cubes
1 cup grated cabbage
1 cup jullian cut carrots
1 tsp pepper powder
1/2 tsp salt
(you could add any finely chopped veggies)

Method:

In a pan stir fry the tofu untild it turns slightly golden brown, then add all the grated veggies along with some pepper and salt and cook well. Keep it aside.


Now take one egg roll wrap and place the filling as in the pic diagonally. Fold the wrap and seal the ends by brushing little water to the edges.

Deep fry this wraps in oil till they turn golden brown all over.
Remove and place then on a tissue to soak excess oil.

Relish the egg rolls along with tomato ketchup or any hot suace!!!!
