This crispy Chinese egg roll recipe from the Half Baked Harvest blog stuffs a lot of flavor into thin egg roll wrappers. Some of these tasty things include Brussels sprouts, mushrooms, carrots, garlic, ginger, green onions and chicken, although the meat could easily be left out for a vegetarian option. As for the sauces that go inside of the rolls, there’s hoisin, soy and sesame oil, as well as fish sauce, which is optional in this recipe, but the saltiness helps to cut through the sweet chile pomegranate sauce, which adds a punch of antioxidants to the dish.
The egg roll dipping sauce is made with Thai pepper sauce, soy sauce, pomegranate juice, brown sugar and rice vinegar, giving a nice blend of salty, sweet and spicy flavors.
