Moo Shu Pork Egg Rolls
I made some Moo Shu Pork Lettuce Wraps earlier this week. We had some leftover, so I got a little creative with a recipe and made them into egg rolls. Moo Shu Pork Egg Rolls were just as delicious as I imagined.
Dipped in a mixture of Hoisin sauce and soy sauce made them even more yummy!
Whether you have leftover take out Moo Shu Pork or leftover homemade, I would highly recommend making these.
And they are actually pretty easy to make.
How to make Moo Shu Pork Egg Rolls
Start with an egg roll wrapper laying flat and diagonal.
Place some of the Moo Shu Pork in the center.
Make sure it’s either cold or at room temperature.
Then dip your finger in some water and trace around the edges of the wrapper.
This will create sort of like a glue to seal the egg roll.
Fold the front part of the wrapper over the filling.
Next fold the sides in.
And finally roll it up into an egg roll.
I made all of my egg rolls and then the sauce.
The sauce is simply combining Hoisin sauce with soy sauce.
Straight Hoisin sauce would be too thick as a dip in my opinion.
So that’s why I added the soy sauce, to kind of thin it out a bit.
Deep frying is not my usual method of cooking. But for these just splurge a bit.
They get super crispy and golden brown…something that baking just wouldn’t compare.
In a small skillet over medium heat fill about 1 inch deep with vegetable oil.
Let this sit about 5 minutes, then check with an instant read thermometer.
When it’s right around 350 degrees it’s ready 🙂
These cook fairly quick. Just a minute or 2 per side and they are done.
Place them on paper towels to drain the excess oil.
Serve Moo Shu Pork Egg Rolls with the dipping sauce on the side and enjoy!
