# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • You get all the crave-worthy flavors of crispy egg rolls in about 25 minutes
  • The ground pork creates those rich, savory pockets of flavor that usually only come from restaurant cooking
02 -
  • Don't overcrowd your pan or the vegetables will steam instead of getting those gorgeous crispy edges
  • The cabbage should still have a slight crunch when you're done cooking, nobody wants mushy egg roll filling
03 -
  • Toast your sesame seeds in a dry pan for 30 seconds before garnishing, it makes a huge difference in flavor
  • Let the pork get really brown and crispy in spots, that's where all the depth of flavor comes from
