Homemade Egg Rolls
  1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. Cook the onion, garlic, and ginger until just soft and aromatic, about 3 minutes.

  3. Add the pork and cook until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Drain excess fat, if desired.

  4. Add the coleslaw mix (or cabbage and carrots), bean sprouts (if using), scallions, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix together with a large spoon.

  5. Working one roll at a time, place about 2 tablespoons of the filling across the center of a wrapper. Brush all four sides of the wrapper with a little water. Fold the bottom corner over the filling and gently tuck in. Next, fold the two sides in and tuck the sides in. Brush a little more water over the top. Roll the egg roll to enclose and the flap is sealed. (See image in post for reference).

  6. Heat enough of the vegetable oil in a large skillet to cover a roll, about 2 to 3 inches. Heat the oil to 350°F (using a candy thermometer ensures correct temperature).

  7. Using a fork, gently slide 1 or 2 of the rolls into the hot oil. Using a couple of forks, keep the rolls submerged until browned all over, flipping a couple of times. About 2 minutes. Repeat with remaining rolls.

  8. To make the duck sauce, mix together all ingredients in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use.
