Ingredients for Making Shrimp Egg Rolls

Video Transcript

"On behalf of Expert Village, I'm Laura Banford and I'm going to show you how to make shrimp egg rolls and with sesame noodles. Here are the ingredients you need to make pork and shrimp spring rolls. I'm taking a little bit of short cut here. This is our Chinese cabbage mixed with carrots. It's like a coleslaw mixture. We can do all that from scratch, but there's really no need to. This nice, crisp, and crunchy. It's exactly the kind of shredded aspect that we need. Those are going to go in our egg rolls. A little bit of lemongrass, some bean sprouts. We put these in at the very end so they don't cook. They stay nice and crisp. Spring roll or egg roll wrappers. I'm going to cut these down a little bit to make them more spring roll size. I don't open these till the last minute because they dry out very easily. I have about a 1/3 of a pound of medium shrimp. A lot of times I would use large shrimp depending on the recipe, but this is going to get diced up before it's cooked, so it doesn't really matter what the size is. These are kind of all-purpose. I have some nice ground pork. I have soy sauce. It's a low sodium soy sauce that I'm going to use in my cornstarch slurry at the very end. Chinese 5 spice powder. I'm going to use blended oil this time. It's canola and corn oil together. Nice and neutral, but has a high smoking point, so our spring rolls will not burn before they're cooked. When we come back, we're going to prep our shrimp."
