Season the pork with ginger and garlic powder in a large bowl; mix until fully combined. Transfer the pork to a medium skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until the pork is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes.
- 3
Combine the cooked pork, cabbage, and carrots in a large bowl; mix until the egg roll filling is evenly combined. Stir the flour and water together in a small bowl until a paste forms.
- 4
Heat oil in a large skillet to about 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) or to medium-high heat. While the oil heats, prepare the egg rolls: Place one egg roll wrapper on the work surface with a corner pointing toward you like a diamond. Spoon about 1/4 to 1/3 cup of the filling into the center of the wrapper.
- 5
Fold the bottom corner up over the filling. Fold the left and right corners in toward the center. Push the egg roll away from you and roll it toward the top corner.
- 6
Brush a little of the flour paste over the inside of the top corner to help seal the egg roll.
- 7
Fry the egg rolls in the hot oil, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crisp, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels or on a rack.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
