Cheaper Than Most Takeout Options – And Much Better Than at a Buffet!
Make a classic Chinese appetizer in the comfort of your own home! Thanks to pre-made egg roll wrappers (and a bit of a cornstarch mixture, to help the ends stay together), it’s not all that difficult or time-consuming to make these Homemade Chicken Egg Rolls on your own. I still usually wind up getting them, anyway, when I go, but the egg rolls that you get at the cheaper Chinese buffets are just a shadow of what they could be. The frozen ones from the grocery store cost an awful lot, compared to what you get out of them, and let’s face it: Not all of us can afford to go to a really fancy Chinese restaurant whenever we want.
Thankfully, it is not too difficult to make very delicious ones at home. This recipe makes enough for about a dozen people to eat two good-sized egg rolls each, so it is a nice idea for a party or tailgate.
So long as you have a means of keeping them warm, but I imagine that you could reduce the recipe to make it suitable for a small family pre-dinner snack, if you prefer. Of course, if you are like me, once you have had one, you’ll want one or two more, easily.
