Another recipe that deserves more than the five stars allowed!! This was my first time making egg rolls (even after 30-plus years of cooking, the concept always seemed too intimidating to try), and they turned out to be the most fantastic egg rolls my husband and I have ever had. I did eliminate the bean sprouts...only because I did not have any in the house...and I steamed and chopped fresh shrimp instead of using canned. I also subbed dried red-pepper flakes for the black pepper, and these came out tasting better than my now "OLD-favorite" egg rolls at my favorite Thai restaurant. These proved so much easier to make than I ever could have imagined. I found that I did not need the cornstarch mixture to seal the wrappers; I used the moisture from the bottom of the bowl that the filling had been sitting in. I had absolutely no issues with the wraps coming apart, and didn't need to use any toothpicks. This is a fantastic recipe!! I would urge anyone who loves egg rolls to try this recipe; you will be shocked at how easy they are to make. Thank you so much for posting this recipe Rouver, I will be using it often!
