Instructions

To Make The Dipping Sauce

  • In a small pot, lightly saute the minced garlic & the chili flakes over medium heat, just until fragrant.
  • Add in the remaining ingredients and cook an additional 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Remove the sauce from heat and refrigerate until ready to serve.

To Make The Eggrolls

  • In a medium-large skillet, over medium heat, add the sausage, ginger, garlic, onion powder, stirring to incorporate and breaking it up as you go, until no pink remains. Set aside.
  • Preheat the oil to 375 degrees F.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the flour and water until evenly combined.
  • Lay out one egg roll wrapper with a corner pointed toward you. Place 2 tablespoons of the meat mixture and roughly 2 tablespoons of the coleslaw mixture in the center. Use your finger to spread a little bit of the flour mixture along the edges.
  • Fold two of the corners together to make a triangle, gently press to seal the edges with the flour mixture, and then fold the sides in and roll up tightly.
  • Fry egg rolls until lightly browned and crispy turning occasionally.
  • Serve the eggrolls with the sesame ginger dipping sauce.
