egg roll
Crispy stuffed appetizer
An egg roll is a cylindrical appetizer in American Chinese cuisine—a wheat wrapper filled with shredded cabbage, pork, and other vegetables, then deep-fried until crispy and blistered.
The wrapper distinguishes it from the thinner, more delicate spring roll: We ordered egg rolls and fried rice.
Served with duck sauce or hot mustard for dipping.
