Tips and Variations for Veggie Egg Rolls
One of the things I love about this recipe is how versatile it is. Mix it up and make it your own combination of egg rolls. You can’t go wrong with these vegetable egg rolls.
Veggies: You can mix and match the vegetables to your liking. Use a Coleslaw premix, or Broccoli slaw, edamame and or green onions, go ahead experiment! Heat: Add fresh garlic and ginger for a nice kick Sauté: If it’s too crunchy for you, sauté your veggies first to soften them to your liking. Chop: Cut your veggies to the same size and keep bite sized for easier eating. More: If you sauté your vegetables first, you can add mung bean sprouts, or noodles to add more texture. Cover: After you open the egg roll wrappers, cover them with a damp paper towel to keep them moist. They dry out fast. Serve: Pick your favorite sauce to go with these, from simple soy sauce to sweet Thai chili sauce.
Bake and Storing Egg Rolls
Baking: Frying is best but if you’d like to bake these place in a single layer on a lightly greased baking sheet. Lightly brush the outsides with vegetable oil. Cook in a preheated oven at 425 degrees for 15-20 minutes, flipping once half way through. They will be golden but not a deep brown and probably not as crispy but still oh so good! Storing: These are truly best eaten fresh from the fryer, once they’ve cooled of course. But if you do have left overs let them cool completely and store with layers of paper towel in between to absorb any moisture. Vegetable Egg rolls will keep about 2-3 days in the fridge. When ready to reheat, place in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes at 350 degrees. They’ll be tasty, just not as crispy.
