Ingredients

Scale

All ingredients for Brandon's Egg Roll Tacos arranged on a white wooden table including pork, wrappers, cabbage, and spices.

For the Filling:

  • 1 pound ground pork
  • 2 cups shredded cabbage
  • 1 medium carrot, grated
  • 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

For the Wrappers:

  • 10-12 egg roll wrappers
  • Cooking oil (for frying) — as needed

For Serving:

  • Fresh cilantro
  • Diced tomatoes
  • Spicy mayo or tangy dipping sauce
  • Shredded cabbage, green onions (optional toppings)

Instructions

Step 1 — Prepare the Filling: Chop cabbage, carrots, and green onions. Cook them in a skillet over medium heat for 5 minutes. Add diced chicken or shrimp and season with soy sauce, garlic, and ginger.

 

Step 2 — Make the Tacos: Lay out egg roll wrappers on a clean surface. Put a spoonful of filling in the center of each. Moisten the edges with water and fold them into triangles, sealing well.

 

Step 3 — Fry the Tacos: Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the tacos until golden and crispy, about 3–4 minutes on each side. Serve hot for the best taste.

 

Step 4 — Garnish: Top with fresh cilantro, diced tomatoes, and your favorite sauce. Spicy mayo or tangy dipping sauce works great.

 

Step 5 — Enjoy: Serve the egg roll tacos hot. This unique twist on a classic will impress everyone with its tasty mix of flavors.

 

 

Notes

  • Preventing soggy taco shells — Keep taco shells crispy by drying them well before filling. A quick oven bake helps, but watch for browning
  • Best practices for frying — Heat the oil right for frying. Test with a small dough piece. If it bubbles, the oil is ready
  • Prep techniques — Use pre-chopped veggies and marinated proteins to save time. This adds flavor easily
  • Experiment with flavors — Try different spice mixes in the filling. Unique flavors can make your dish stand out
  • Serving tips — Offer various dips like sweet chili sauce or lime crema. This adds a new flavor layer that wows guests
