Everyone loves egg rolls! They're the quintessential Chinese side dish. This recipe earns extra kudos for reducing the fat by substituting ground turkey and baking–not frying–the wraps. Ingredients:
2/3 cup coarsely chopped celery |
2/3 cup coarsely chopped carrot |
2 cups shredded cabbage |
1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil |
2/3 cup chopped onion |
1/2 teaspoon minced peeled fresh ginger |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1/2 pound ground turkey breast |
1 1/2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper |
14 egg roll wrappers |
1 large egg white |
cooking spray |
3/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce |
6 tablespoons rice vinegar |
2 tablespoons dark sesame oil |
1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger |
1/3 cup thinly sliced green onions (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425°.
2. Combine celery and carrot in food processor, and pulse 10 times or until finely chopped.
3. Combine celery mixture and cabbage in a medium bowl. Cover with plastic wrap; vent. Microwave at high 5 minutes; drain.
4. Heat vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, 1/2 teaspoon ginger, and garlic; sauté 2 minutes. Add turkey; cook 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in cabbage mixture, 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce, and pepper. Cover and chill 15 minutes.
5. Place 1 egg roll wrapper at a time onto work surface with 1 corner pointing toward you (wrapper should look like a diamond). Trim 1 inch off right and left corners of wrapper. Spoon 3 tablespoons turkey filling into center of wrapper. Fold lower corner of egg roll wrapper over filling. Fold in trimmed corners. Moisten top corner of wrapper with egg white; roll up jelly-roll fashion. Repeat procedure with remaining wrappers, turkey filling, and egg white.
6. Lightly coat egg rolls with cooking spray, and place, seam side down, on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake at 425° for 18 minutes or until golden brown.
7. To prepare sauce, combine 3/4 cup soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, and 1 tablespoon ginger; serve with egg rolls. Garnish with green onions, if desired.
