Instructions
Set up a clean workspace with your eggroll wrappers, pulled pork, and coleslaw within easy reach.
Mix the pulled pork with your favorite BBQ sauce. It should be moist but not too juicy.
Place an eggroll wrapper on a clean surface, with one corner pointing towards you.
Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the pulled pork onto the center of the wrapper then top it with 1-2 tablespoons of coleslaw. Press it all down gently.
Brush the outside edges of the wrapper with the dissolved cornstarch to help seal the eggroll.
Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll up tightly to ensure the filling stays inside during frying.
Heat oil in a deep fryer or large, deep skillet to 350°F (175°C).
Carefully place the eggrolls in the hot oil, a few at a time, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the eggrolls from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite BBQ sauce for dipping.
Notes
Chef Jenn’s Tips
Keep the eggroll wrappers covered with a damp (not wet!) cloth while working to prevent them from drying out.
Use a thermometer to maintain the oil temperature, ensuring perfectly crispy eggrolls.
You can prepare the eggrolls up to the point of frying about 3-4 hours ahead of time. Keep them tightly wrapped in the fridge until ready to fry.
If you don’t have a deep fryer, use a heavy-bottomed pot for frying.
Serve with a variety of dipping sauces, such as ranch, barbecue, or chipotle mayo, to jazz it up.
