Does anyone out there have a good egg roll recipe? I tried making them once and they just didn't taste right. I know how to roll them and deep fry them, I just need a good, simple recipe. Thanks!

Egg Rolls
SUBMITTED BY: Donna
"Wontons are a great meal or appetizer. Once they have been put together you can either fry them or steam them, both ways are delicious
INGREDIENTS
1 (16 ounce) package wonton wrappers
1 pound lean ground beef
1 pound shrimp - peeled, deveined and coarsely chopped
5 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 pound bean sprouts
2 green onions
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 medium head cabbage, finely shredded
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon monosodium glutamate (MSG)
1 cup vegetable oil
DIRECTIONS
Place cabbage, bean sprouts, celery, and green onions in a large wok and stir fry over a high heat until vegetables cook down (add a little water if necessary). Mix in shrimp, stir fry until cooked.
In a large skillet, brown ground meat. Drain grease and add the meat to the vegetable and shrimp mixture. Continue to fry over a high heat; add oyster sauce, soy sauce, garlic, and MSG. When well blended, remove mixture from heat.
Place a tablespoon of the meat and seafood mixture (or more, depending on how large your wonton skins are) into the center of each wonton skin. Fold the wonton skin over to make a package of the meat mixture inside, and seal the skin closed by dipping your finger in a little water and pressing the ends together.
Fry the wontons in 1/4 inch of vegetable oil until golden brown.

Egg Roll Wrappers
SUBMITTED BY: Matilda
"Homemade egg roll wrappers can be a real treat for the self-sufficient cook! Getting the wok to the correct temperature may be a challenge. If the batter sets before the wrapper is fully formed, the wok is too hot; if the edges are thin, it's too cool. Experiment and enjoy!"
INGREDIENTS
1 egg, beaten
3/4 cup cold water
1/4 teaspoon salt
7/8 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons peanut oil
DIRECTIONS
In a medium bowl, whisk together egg, cold water and salt. Mix in all-purpose flour 1/3 at a time. Allow the mixture to stand 15 minutes at room temperature.
Heat a wok over high heat. Remove from heat and thinly coat with 1 tablespoon peanut oil. Reduce heat to low. While wok is still warm, pour 1/4 of the egg mixture in an approximately 8 inch circle. Rotate wok quickly to spread an even layer of batter. Cook over low heat 45 seconds to 1 minute, until bottom is golden brown and edges begin to curl. Carefully remove from heat and place on a paper towel, golden brown side down.
Repeat the wok procedure with remaining batter, 1/4 at a time. Rub wok with remaining tablespoon of peanut oil after the second wrapper has been made.
Allow the wrappers to cool completely. Cut wrappers in half to use for egg rolls.
