Ingredients
1 lb ground pork
1 sm onion, chopped fine
5 c packaged cabbage/coleslaw mix
1 Tbsp oyster sauce
1 tsp ginger in a tube (found in produce dept. of grocery)
salt & pepper, to taste
15 egg roll wraps
1 qt oil, for frying
3 clove garlic finely minced, or 1 tsp. garlic powder
2 eggs, scrambled and mashed up, optoinal
Directions
1. In a little bit of oil, saute onions until tender.
2. Then add pork and saute until browned or done.
3. Add garlic, ginger, salt, and pepper and mix well letting the flavors settle. Add oyster sauce and mix again.
4. Then add cabbage.
5. Cook for about 3-5 minutes according to your desired “crunch factor.”
6. Fill egg roll wraps by starting with the corner closest to you and adding about 2 Tbsp of filling.
7. Wet each end, roll the mixture in the wrap once, fold in the sides, and continue to the end of the furthest corner.
8. Make sure the wet ends stick to each other. You can watch how to do it on this YouTube clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJTdKyDg_2Y
9. Heat oil to 350-360 degrees. NOTE: Make sure oil is hot enough or egg rolls will be greasy. Deep fry 1-3 egg rolls at a time until they are light brown. They will look darker after you take them out of the oil. Drain on paper towels. AGAIN, make sure that all openings in the egg roll are sealed with water and stay closed or the egg rolls will be greasy.

10. You can buy duck sauce already made or make your own with apricot jam, a little light corn syrup, and some water to make it your desired consistency. If you make your own, I recommend putting a tad of ginger in it for some extra flavor.
