MINI EGG ROLLS

Steps:

• Heat sesame oil and saute ginger 30 seconds. Add scallions and saute 30 seconds. Stir in soy sauce and evaporate a second. Stir in eggs and stir to softly scramble. Remove from heat and transfer to a bowl; stir in carrots, steamed napa cabbage and chili paste to taste.
• Divide wrappers into half, so you can make mini egg rolls. Set each wrapper at such an angle that the points of the wrapper face north, south, east and west. Set a bit of filling in bottom third of wrapper. Bring bottom point over filling and tuck it underneath; roll the filling up a bit to secure tightly. Bring right point of wrapper over filling to form a neat right angle; bring left side of wrapper over right side to form a left right angle, and dab this top point with egg yolk. Roll the egg roll up to secure tightly. The egg yolk will seal the wrapper to itself.
• Can be frozen for up to a week. Deep fry straight from freezer; otherwise partially thaw before frying.
• To fry: Heat the oil and deep fry long enough for the rolls to float to surface; turning them, for 2 to 3 minutes. Drain immediately on double thickness of paper towels. Once drained, set on a rack so bottom does not get soggy.

MINIATURE CHICKEN EGGROLL APPETIZERS

Steps:

• Set out eggroll wrappers to bring to room temperature. Cover with a damp cloth to keep them from drying out if needed.
• Rinse the chicken breast and pat dry with paper towels, cut off any fat. In a medium size sauce pan, over medium heat, add chicken and fill with water. Bring to a boil until chicken is fork tender, (about 30-35 minutes). Remove from heat, drain and let cool to the touch. Finely dice chicken and set aside.
• In a small size mixing bowl, mix together the oyster sauce, sesame oil and soy sauce. Set aside, then wash and prepare the vegetables.
• Heat the wok or large size skillet on medium-high heat, and add 2 tablespoons oil. Add the minced garlic and stir until aromatic (15 seconds). Add the celery and chopped onions to the hot oil.

• Add the chicken to the wok or skillet. Then add the sauce mixture with the chicken and vegetables. Stir well to coat, then remove from the heat and let cool to the touch.
• Assembling the egg rolls:.
• Cut the wrappers down the middle, turn them over and cut down the middle again, (making 4 small even squares), lay an egg roll wrapper square out in front of you with point facing you.
• Place 1 tablespoon of the filling in the middle, spreading it out so it doesn't bunch up but not going right to the edges of the wrapper. Dip your finger tips in water. Wet 3 edges of the wrapper, excluding the bottom edge that is closest to you.
• Lift the bottom of the wrapper over the filling. Fold in the sides, pressing down to stick, and roll up the egg roll the remainder of the way. Press down the top edge to seal.
• Carefully add the miniature stuffed egg rolls into the hot oil, (seam side down), 10 to12 at a time, and deep-fry until they turn golden brown. (Add more oil, if needed). Remove and drain on paper towels.
