These are the best!! The recipe makes more than a dozen, so I froze half. I defrosted them in the microwave for a few minutes before frying them and they still tasted wonderful!
They make great late night snacks!!

I've never made homemade eggrolls before but this recipe was easy to follow and the outcome was absolutely delish! I added ginger which melded beautifully with the fresh lime. I enjoyed the melange of textures from the crunch of the broccoli slaw to the crispiness of the fried shell and the softness of the freshly ground pork. My only concern was that they were a little difficult to eat because the contents kept falling out of the shell. Nonetheless I will definitely make these again!
