Ingredients

• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ cup water
• 1 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon white sugar
• 1 pound lean ground beef
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 onion, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons sherry
• 1 (16 ounce) package egg roll wrappers
• ½ teaspoon dried minced garlic
• 1 large head cabbage, finely shredded
• 2 quarts vegetable oil for deep frying

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown beef, then mix in onion, garlic, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, 2 tablespoons sherry, and ginger. Continue to saute just until onions are tender. Transfer mixture to a bowl and set aside.

Step 2

In the same skillet, saute cabbage with water, 1 tablespoon oil, sugar, and remaining soy sauce, sherry, salt, and pepper. Continue to saute until cabbage is crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Return meat mixture to pan and stir together with cabbage over low heat until heated through. Remove from heat.

Step 3

Pour oil into a deep pan and heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Fill each egg roll wrapper with approximately 1/4 cup of filling and roll up according to package directions. Fry in preheated oil until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and serve hot.
