• If the oil is too hot, the wrappers will brown too quickly and the filling will not have time to cook through.
• If you don't have egg roll wrappers, you can use wonton wrappers instead.
• You can also add other vegetables to the filling, such as bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, or water chestnuts.
• Serve the egg rolls with your favorite dipping sauce, such as soy sauce, duck sauce, or sweet and sour sauce.
