How To Make gerry's egg rolls

Step 1

Chicken meat from 1 three pound chicken (which you earlier have de-fatted and de-skinned and cooked until tender in 2 cups water and 1/2 cup soy sauce. After chicken has cooled and it has been de-boned you shred or chop it.

Step 2

Chop water chestnuts and Add 1 can of drained bean sprouts or fresh if using and 3 eggs. mix until well blended.
Step 3

Put mixture on skins. Fold side edges in about 1 to 1 1/2 inches. Then roll up. Brush the outside edge of the "triangle flap"of skin with the beaten egg and seal. Repeat until skins are used up. You will use a generous 2 tablespoons of filling per roll.
Step 4

Fry in hot fat until skins turn golden brown. Drain on paper towels. May keep warm in a 200 degree oven until serving.
Step 5

Serve with tiny bowls (individual) of hot mustard and soy sauce AND Gerry's Chicken and Long Rice:)) If you don't have the tiny individual bowl, just put "puddles" of hot mustard and soy sauce.
