Test Kitchen Approved

You’ll never believe the secret to these ground beef egg rolls is a packaged coleslaw mix.

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
1 package (14 ounces) coleslaw mix
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
28 egg roll wrappers
Canola oil for frying

Directions

In a large skillet, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink, 5-7 minutes, breaking into crumbles; drain and cool slightly. In a bowl, combine beef, coleslaw mix, soy sauce, garlic powder, ginger and onion powder. In a small bowl, combine flour and enough water to make a paste.
With 1 corner of an egg roll wrapper facing you, place 1/4 cup filling just below center of wrapper. (Cover remaining wrappers with a damp paper towel until ready to use.) Fold bottom corner over filling; moisten remaining wrapper edges with flour paste. Fold side corners toward center over filling. Roll up tightly, pressing at tip to seal. Repeat.
In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry egg rolls, a few at a time, until golden brown, 3-4 minutes; turning occasionally. Drain on paper towels.
