This recipe guides you through creating your own egg roll wrappers from scratch. You'll combine eggs, flour, water, and salt into a thin batter, which is then cooked in a lightly oiled pan to form delicate, golden sheets. The process is straightforward and yields wrappers ideal for filling with your favourite ingredients. It's a fundamental skill for preparing homemade Asian-style rolls and parcels.

Ingredients

4 eggs
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups water, more if needed
1 teaspoon salt
vegetable oil, to coat pan

Method

Whisk the eggs with the water until the mixture becomes frothy.
Slowly incorporate the flour into the egg mixture, then add the salt, stirring to create a smooth, thin batter.
Place an 8 inch frying pan over heat until it is hot, then lightly coat the base with vegetable oil.
Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, tilting it swiftly so the batter spreads into a thin layer covering the pan's bottom.
Fry the wrapper until the underside turns a golden colour, then carefully transfer it to a damp paper towel. Continue this process until no batter remains.
