Ingredients
  • 1 tbsp  cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 1 package coleslaw mix (OR 3 cups shredded cabbage and 1 large carrot, shredded)
  • 3-4 whole mushrooms, diced (I used regular, but shiitake are great, too)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp  soy sauce
  • 1 tsp. sesame oil
  • 1/4 tsp sugar
  • salt to taste
  • 1 package egg roll wrappers (located in the produce dept. at most grocery stores)

Method
 

Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the cold water and cornstarch. Set aside.
  2. In a large non-stick skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil and add cabbage, carrots, mushrooms, and garlic. Saute until tender.
  3. Add the sesame oil, soy sauce, sugar, and salt. Saute another 2-3 minutes until the filling is well mixed. Drain and place mixture into a large bowl.
  4. On a flat clean surface, turn the egg roll wrapper in a diamond shape, spooning 3 tablespoons of the filling into the center of the wrapper.
  5. Fold tightly until your wrapper looks like an open envelope. Seal edges with cornstarch mixture from the first step. Continue rolling tightly and seal again with the cornstarch mixture.
  6. Repeat with additional wrappers until filling is gone.
  7. Spray the basket of your air fryer with oil. In a single layer, place egg rolls in the basket. Spray the tops of the egg rolls with oil.
  8. Cook at 390° F / 199° C for 8 minutes.
  9. Plate and enjoy!
