Ingredients
1 lb shrimp, peeled, deveined, and chopped
1/2 lb smoked sausage, diced
1 cup coleslaw mix (shredded cabbage and carrots)
2 green onions, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp Cajun seasoning
1 tsp hot sauce
1 tbsp soy sauce
12 egg roll wrappers
Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the diced sausage until browned. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, sauté garlic and shrimp until just cooked through.
Add coleslaw mix, green onions, Cajun seasoning, soy sauce, and hot sauce. Stir well and cook for 2–3 minutes.
Return sausage to the pan and mix everything together. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Place a portion of the filling in the center of each egg roll wrapper. Fold and roll tightly, sealing edges with water.
Heat oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Fry egg rolls in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3–4 minutes.
Drain on paper towels and serve hot.
Notes
Serve with ranch, spicy mayo, or sweet chili sauce for dipping.
You can substitute shrimp with chicken if preferred.
For a lighter option, bake at 400°F (200°C) until crispy, about 15–20 minutes.
Do not overfill wrappers to prevent bursting during frying.
