Air Fryer Instructions
- Preheat a frying pan for a few minutes over medium heat.
- Add the sesame oil, ginger, garlic, cabbage, and shredded carrot. Cook down for 2-3 minutes or until the cabbage has wilted.3 cups cabbage, 1.5 tsp toasted sesame oil, 2 tsp ginger, 1 clove garlic, 1/4 cup shredded carrot
- Add the green onions, soy sauce, and black pepper. Stir and remove from heat.1 tsp reduced sodium soy sauce, 2 green onions, 1/4 tsp black pepper
- Assemble your egg rolls (see the detailed instructions in the post).
- Brush olive oil over the top of the egg rolls. Alternatively, you could use a Misto to spray olive oil, but I found that caused the egg roll wrappers to bubble up more when they were cooking.1 tsp olive oil
- Brush olive oil on the basket of your air fryer. Place the egg rolls in the basket, seam side down, without letting them touch each other.
- Bake at 360 degrees F for 7 minutes. Flip and bake for an additional 2 minutes.
Skillet Instructions
- Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes. Then add enough avocado oil to cover the bottom of the skillet. Place the egg roll "seam side" down in the oil.
- Cook it until that side is crispy and brown, and then flip. When finished cooking, place them on a plate lined with newspaper or paper towels to absorb the extra oil.
Baked Egg Rolls Instructions
- Place a baking rack on a foil-lined baking sheet. Liberally spray the rack with olive oil.
- Put the egg rolls seam side down on the baking rack and brush olive oil over the top.
- Bake at 325 F for 12 minutes, and flip. Bake for an addition 8-12 minutes or until the egg rolls are nice and crispy without being burned.
Notes
- To freeze: place uncooked egg rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and freeze. Then transfer to a freezer-proof bag or container. Do not thaw before cooking. You will need to add a few minutes to the cooking time.
- If you want to add meat to the egg rolls, you'll need to cook it before placing it in the wrapper.
