Ingredients
 

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a wok or large heavy skillet over high heat.
    3 tbsp peanut oil
  • Sauté the pork just until it looses its colour.
    1/2 lb ground pork
  • Add the remaining ingredients except the corn-starch mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until the shrimp have turned pink and the liquid boils.
    1/2 lb Shrimp, 225 g bean sprouts, 4 ribs celery, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice wine, 1/2 tsp sugar, salt, ground pepper
  • Stir in the corn-starch mixture and cook until the corn-starch becomes clear and the liquid has thickened.
    1 tbsp cornstarch, 2 tbsp cold water
  • Remove from the heat and allow to cool to room temperature.
  • Shape about 1/4 cup (60 ml) of the cool filling mixture into an oblong “sausage” shape and place diagonally on one of the egg roll wrappers.
  • Fold one corner of the egg roll wrapper over the filling, and fold the adjacent corners towards the centre.
    450 g egg roll wrappers
  • Moisten the remaining corner of the wrapper with a finger dipped in water and roll the filling to form a tight bundle.
  • Repeat with the remaining filling and wrappers.
  • Heat the oil in a wok or large skillet until the surface shimmers, about 375F (190C) on a deep-frying thermometer.
    3 cups peanut oil
  • Fry the egg rolls 5 or 6 at a time until golden brown on all sides, about 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Transfer to a wire rack and repeat with the remaining egg rolls.
  • Serve as soon as possible, or keep warm in a 250F (120C) oven until ready to serve.
