Description
Delicious homemade shrimp egg rolls filled with crunchy coleslaw and seasoned shrimp, perfect for snacking or as an appetizer.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound raw shrimp (peeled, deveined, and roughly chopped into chunks)
- to taste salt and pepper
- 2–3 garlic cloves (minced)
- 3 cups coleslaw mix
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce (or liquid aminos)
- 1 teaspoon fish sauce
- 1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger (or up to a tablespoon of fresh ginger)
- 2 green onions (chopped)
- 12–14 egg roll wrappers
- 1 small cup water
- to taste cooking oil (I use olive oil)
Instructions
- Place a skillet on medium-high heat and spritz with cooking oil.
- Add the shrimp chunks to the pan along with the salt and pepper to taste.
- Saute for 3-4 minutes until the shrimp is bright pink. Add the garlic to the pan and cook until fragrant.
- Remove the shrimp and garlic and set aside.
- Add the coleslaw mix to a large mixing bowl along with the cooked shrimp, soy sauce, fish sauce, ginger, sesame oil, and green onions. Mix. Allow the shrimp mix to cool before loading it into the egg roll wrappers.
- Lay the egg roll wrappers diagonally on a dry, flat surface. Monitor yours to determine if you may need to double wrap the egg rolls.
- Glaze the edges of each wrapper with a small amount of water to make them easier to roll. You can use a cooking brush or your fingers.
- Place 2 tablespoons of filling into the center of each wrapper. Seal and close the wrapper diagonally to form a triangle. Fold two opposite corners together to make a triangle, fold the sides in, and then roll tightly. Use additional water if the wrapper becomes tough to roll. Repeat for each egg roll.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Place the egg rolls on the pan and spritz them with cooking oil.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes until golden brown.
- Spray the air fryer basket with cooking oil.
- Add the egg rolls to the basket. Do not stack or crowd the basket. Cook in batches if needed.
- Spritz the top of the egg rolls with cooking oil.
- Air fry on 400 degrees for 7 minutes.
- Open the air fryer and flip the egg rolls. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes or until crisp. Monitor your egg rolls to determine the appropriate time needed for your batch.
Notes
- Some egg roll wrap brands are really thin. You may need to double wrap your egg rolls.
- Every air fryer brand will cook at varying speeds.
- Adjust the cooking time as needed based on your air fryer.
