MOM'S EGG ROLLS WITH SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE

Steps:

• To make sweet and sour sauce, in 1-quart saucepan, mix sugar, ketchup, 2/3 cup water, 1 tablespoon soy sauce and the salt. Cook 5 minutes. Stir in vinegar.
• In small bowl, mix cornstarch and 1/3 cup cold water. Add to sauce; cook until thickened.
• To make egg rolls, in 12-inch skillet, cook ground beef, onion and green onions until beef is thoroughly cooked. Drain off excess fat.
• Stir in coleslaw mix. Add soy sauce by pouring around top of mixture about 2 times. Taste and check saltiness; you can always add more. Cook until thoroughly heated.
• While cabbage mixture is cooking, place egg roll skins on large work surface. Spoon 1 serving spoon-size of beef mixture on center of each skin. For each egg roll, bring up bottom corner; fold in side corners and roll up. Bring down top corner; wet with small amount of water to stick.
• In small skillet, heat oil. When oil is hot, fry egg rolls until crispy. Shake off excess oil.

SWEET AND SOUR CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly grease with oil.
• Combine the cauliflower and 3 tablespoons of the oil in a large resealable plastic bag. Seal and shake until well coated. Add 1/2 cup of the cornstarch, 1 teaspoon salt and the pepper, then reseal and shake until well coated.
• Heat the remaining 1/3 cup oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the cauliflower and fry, tossing to cook on all sides, until deep golden brown in spots, about 10 minutes. Transfer the fried cauliflower to the prepared baking sheet and bake until the cauliflower starts to get crispy, 10 to 15 minutes
• While the cauliflower bakes, prepare the sauce. Whisk together the sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, ketchup, garlic powder and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan. Place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil; the sauce should thicken slightly.
• Whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoons cold water in a small bowl until fully dissolved. Add the cornstarch slurry to the boiling sauce, reduce the heat to low and cook until thickened, about 30 seconds.
• Transfer the cauliflower to a large bowl and add half of the sauce. Toss until the cauliflower is well coated, then add the remaining sauce and toss. Garnish with the scallions and sesame seeds and serve with rice.
• Place the rice and 2 1/4 cups cold water in a medium saucepan. Put the pan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover and cook until the rice is tender, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove the lid and fluff the rice before serving.

PORK EGG ROLLS WITH SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the fryer.
• In a wok, heat the oil. When the oil is hot, add the pork. Season with salt and pepper. Stir fry for 3 minutes. Add the onions and garlic, continue to cook for 2 minutes. Add the bok choy and shrimp. Season with salt and pepper. Stir-fry for 1 minute. Season with the sesame oil, soy sauce, sake and sugar. Add the sprouts and green onions and mix thoroughly. Remove from the heat and cool completely.
• To assemble, spoon about 1/4 cup of the filling in a rectangular shape on the center of each wrapper. Fold in the ends toward the center about 1/4-inch. Then, beginning at the bottom, roll up the wrapper, like a jelly roll, using a little of the egg wash to seal the end tightly. Repeat until all of the egg rolls are done.
• Fry the egg rolls in batches until golden brown, stirring occasionally for overall browning, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels. Season the egg rolls with Essence. Serve warm with the Sweet and Sour Sauce.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
