Description
You won't believe how simple it is to make your own delicious
restaurant-quality egg rolls! Hints: cutting very small pieces of pork
tenderloin is quick and easy when the meat is partially frozen. Or
leave the pork out for vegetarian egg rolls. Commercially prepared shoestring or matchstick carrots along with coleslaw mix may be used to really speed things up! Created expressly for rsc #9.
