- Roll the Egg Rolls:
- Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll up tightly.

Notes
- Egg Roll Wrapper Tips: Make sure to keep the wrappers covered with a damp cloth while assembling to prevent them from drying out.
- Frying Oil Temperature: To check if the oil is hot enough, drop a small piece of the egg roll wrapper into the oil; if it bubbles and rises to the surface, it’s ready for frying.
