Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Creative Easter Egg Rolls
  1. Cook the rice vermicelli in boiling water for 3–5 minutes, drain, and chop into smaller pieces. Mix chopped ham, shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, and soy sauce in a large bowl.
  2. Lay an egg roll wrapper with a corner facing you. Place about two tablespoons of filling in the center and roll tightly, sealing with water.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet to about 1/2 inch deep over medium-high heat. Test oil with a small piece of wrapper to ensure it's hot enough.
  4. Fry the egg rolls in batches for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Use tongs to turn them gently.
  5. Transfer finished egg rolls to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Let cool slightly.
  6. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces and enjoy!
