Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 3 cups chopped green cabbage
- 1/2 cups shredded carrots
- 2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce
- 1/2 tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar
- 1/2 pound large peeled raw shrimp
- 6 egg roll wrappers
- Olive oil spray
- Sweet chili sauce, duck sauce or spicy mustard
- 2 large scallions
- 3 garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
Equipment Needed
- Air Fryer
Instructions
- 1
In a sizable skillet, warm sesame oil over medium-high heat. Introduce the shrimp and sauté until they are nearly cooked through, which should take around 1 to 2 minutes.
- 2
Incorporate ginger, garlic, and scallions into the skillet. Sauté these ingredients until they become aromatic, about 30 seconds. Then, mix in the cabbage, carrots, soy sauce, and vinegar.
- 3
Continue cooking on high heat until the vegetables achieve a tender-crisp texture, approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a colander to drain and allow it to cool.
- 4
Take one egg roll wrapper and place it on a clean surface, oriented like a diamond with the points facing up and down. Spoon about 1/3 cup of the filling onto the lower third of the wrapper.
- 5
Moisten your finger in a small bowl of water and trace it along the edges of the wrapper. Lift the nearest point and fold it over the filling.
- 6
Tuck the left and right corners toward the center and continue rolling tightly into a cylinder shape. Set this aside and repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- 7
Using your fingers, lightly spray oil on all sides of the egg rolls to ensure an even coating.
- 8
Cook in batches at 370°F for 5 to 7 minutes, flipping them halfway through until they turn a golden brown.
- 9
Serve hot, accompanied by a dipping sauce on the side, if desired.
- 10
Preheat the oven to 425°F, then fill the wrappers and bake until they are golden on both sides, which will take about 15 to 20 minutes.
