conchik's eggrolls
Eggrolls is one of our tropical side dish or it could be a dish of it's own. Because of it's popularity, we often prepare them on every special occasion or events, like weddings, birthdays, office party, etc. Eggrolls may be made with or without vegetables, or they can be made with any of your favorite veggies without the meat. The neat thing that always excites me, it that people tend to fall in love with this eggroll because it's not an everyday dish. Eggrolls may be prepared way ahead of time and kept frozen until it's time to cook them. Eggrolls may be fried frozen or bake. They are fresh, crispy and tasty.
