Veggie Egg Roll pieces on plateI love making egg rolls at home because I can be quite picky about what's put in the middles when I order them at restaurants. Plus it costs so much less! Try these crispy rolls as an appetizer, or as a main dish. I love using soy, vinegar and chili paste as a dipping sauce. Yum!

  9. Keep the remaining stack in a clean kitchen towel so they do not dry out. Keep any unused wrappers from recipe in the fridge or freezer, wrapped tightly.

  11. Lay out a wrapper diagonally in front of you on a work surface. Place a pile of the cooked veggies near the bottom corner of the wrapper.
  12. adding Veggies to wrapper
     
  13. Roll the wrapper over and up tightly, not allowing much air between the veggies. Go halfway up.
  14. rolled filled wrapper half way
     
  15. Fold both sides in over the rolled veggies.
  16. folded corners on filled wrapper
     
  17. Continue rolling upwards, then add a dab of water to the top corner with your finger to seal the roll shut.

  21. Heat up 1/2 an inch of oil then reduce heat to medium low. If the oil is too hot, the wrapper will break. Add rolls to oil in batches as not to overcrowd the pan. Cook until golden all over, then drain on paper towels. Slice in half diagonally if desired, and serve with your favourite sauces.
