recipe

preparation time: 5 mins cook time: 15 mins ready time: 20 mins


• heat a wok over medium heat until very hot and pour vegetable oil into hot wok. let oil heat until the surface shimmers. to test heat, lower the tip of a wooden chop stick into the oil; if it vigorously, oil is heated enough.
• cut egg roll wrappers into 1-inch strips and gently lay strips into the hot oil, 2 or 3 at a time. when strips start to brown on one side, gently flip over and brown the other side until the strips are crisp and golden brown, 30 seconds to 1 minute. repeat with remaining egg roll wrappers, working in batches. remove crisp noodles with slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
