Vegan Egg Rolls

Ingredients:

  • 1 package of vegan spring roll wrappers
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage
  • ONE cup julienned carrots
  • 1 cup bean sprouts
  • 1 cup firm tofu, pressed and diced
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped green onions
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • ONE teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water (for sealing)
  • Oil for frying

    Instructions:

    1. Prepare the Filling:
    • In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, julienned carrots, bean sprouts, diced tofu, chopped green onions, minced garlic, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, and grated ginger. Mix well to ensure even distribution of flavors.
    2. Assemble the Egg Rolls:
    • Lay a spring roll wrapper on a clean surface. Place a generous spoonful of the vegetable-tofu mixture in the center.
    3. Roll the Egg Rolls:
    • Fold the sides of the wrapper over the filling, then tightly roll it from the bottom to the top, sealing the top edge with the cornstarch-water mixture.
    4. Repeat:
    • Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
    5. Heat the Oil:
    • In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat enough oil for frying to 350°F (180°C).
    6. Fry the Egg Rolls:
    • Carefully place the rolled egg rolls into the hot oil, a few at a time, and fry until golden brown and crispy. This usually takes about 3-4 minutes per batch.
    7. Drain and Serve:
    • Remove the egg rolls from the oil and place them on a paper towel to drain any excess oil. Serve warm.
    8. Enjoy with Dipping Sauce:
    • Serve the vegan egg rolls with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, or a homemade vegan sauce.
