Recipe:

Ingredients:

• 1 lb ground beef
• 2 cups shredded cabbage
• 1 cup shredded carrots
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tsp sesame oil (optional)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 package egg roll wrappers
• Vegetable oil (for frying)

Instructions:

1. Cook the Filling: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain any excess fat.
2. Add Vegetables: Add the shredded cabbage, carrots, and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are soft.
3. Season the Mixture: Stir in soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
4. Wrap the Egg Rolls: Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with a corner pointing toward you (like a diamond shape). Add a few spoonfuls of the filling in the center. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll up tightly. Seal the top corner with a little water.
5. Fry the Egg Rolls: Heat oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat. Fry the egg rolls in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
6. Serve: Enjoy the egg rolls hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce or soy sauce.
