Ingredients

  • 1 tsp vegetable oil, or as needed
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 6 cups cabbage, shredded
  • ½ cup fresh bean sprouts
  • 1 carrot, shredded
  • 1 celery stalk, diced
  • 2 tablespoons chopped onion (Optional)
  • 1 (4 ounce) can shrimp, drained
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • black pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch, divided
  • vegetable oil for frying, or as needed
  • 2 tbsp cold water
  • 20 egg roll wrappers

Directions

Step 1
Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add egg and cook, without stirring, until the bottom has set. Flip and cook until set on the other side, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and finely chop.

Step 2
Mix cabbage, bean sprouts, carrot, celery, and onion together in a large bowl. Stir in shrimp, soy sauce, garlic powder, and pepper. Stir in chopped egg, then sprinkle 1 tablespoon cornstarch over top. Mix to combine and let sit for 10 minutes.

Step 3
Heat 3 to 4 inches vegetable oil in a deep fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Mix water and remaining 1 tablespoon cornstarch together in a small bowl.

Step 4
Place an egg roll wrapper onto a work surface with one corner pointing away from you like a diamond. Spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons shrimp mixture into the center. Moisten the top and side corners with the wet cornstarch mixture. Fold the dry bottom corner up and over the filling, making a tight tube. Fold the side corners in, pressing to stick against the folded roll, then roll toward the top corner to complete. Repeat to make remaining egg rolls.

Step 5
Working in batches, carefully fry egg rolls in the preheated fryer until golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

Tips

You can substitute?shredded chicken or pork for the shrimp if desired.
