An Old Favorite Done at Home
Hey all! I'm sorry I haven't posted anything in about a week. I have been pretty busy on co-op. But I just came down with a cold! So I have more free time lol. But you know, everyone loves a good egg roll now and again. But if you are like me, you loved them any time, and any where! As I have said before, I love, love, love, hand foods! Brendan and I got together one night and I "persuaded" him to eat unhealthily. (LOL) But I started with the wanton wraps. They were a LOT more simple than I had planned. Flour, water, and egg. But I had NO IDEA what the eff was in an egg roll... So I put my photographic memory to good use and found out that the insides had shrimp, and carrot, but I couldn't for the life of me figure out what made up the bulk of this yummy treat. But suddenly, I had remembered that the inside looked similar to the fried cabbage my mom and grandma used to make when I was at home. I shredded up some a butt-ton of cabbage (I figured that they would shrivel like spinach... not so much.) I grated some carrots and diced some shrimp. I sauteed those things up in some mirin, rice wine, and a dash of salt and pepper, and topped it off with a couple of eggs when the bulk was cooked through and slightly wilted. The hardest part was to fill the wraps. If you try this recipe, please, PLEASE work quickly! And do NOT let them touch each other before frying. The sauce on the side is a homemade, sweet and spicy sauce. Because spicy is the best, and sweet is just awesome! I will be posting the sauce's recipe later on.
