Golden Eggroll




After cooking the Lion's head dish last weekend, I got some ground meat left. It gave me the perfect chance to try a new recipe out: ground meat wrapped around with a layer of cooked egg.

Egg wrapper:

1 egg
2 Tbsp starch
1 Tbsp water

Heat a pan on medium/low heat. Mix the egg well and pour on the pan sprayed with some non-stick cooking spray. Swirl the pan to evenly distribute the egg mix. Cook till the egg becomes solid.

Filling:

Out of your imagination. Ground meat, chopped shrimp, veggies, so on and so forth.

Assembling:

Lay a layer of Saran wrap on the chopping board, then lay the egg wrapper on top. Spread a layer of filling, about 1 inch thick. On top of this, lay one sheet of Nori paper. On top, spread another layer of filling, no more than 1 inch thick.

From both sides, roll the whole thing till you are satisfied. Use the Saran wrap to hold the roll in place. Loosely seal the two ends. Steam for 25mins.

Cut into thin slices and serve warm.
