2 stalks bok choi, chopped
4 cup fresh bean sprouts

4 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoon sesame oil
1 pkg egg roll skins or wrappers

Mix filling ingredients together. Put mixture in the - Freezer awhile to cool. Warm meat tends to soften the wrappers and make things messy.
Heat vegetable oil in fryer to 325 degrees.
To roll, place about 3 tb filling mixture in the center of the wrapper. Fold 1 corner over mixture and fold in ends. Continue rolling. Brush egg mixture on exposed corner of wrapper to help seal egg roll.
Put egg rolls in hot oil, a few at a time, and fry a few minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove to drain on paper towels. Serve warm with soy sauce, hot mustard, or sauce of your choice. Makes 18 egg rolls.
