To assemble the egg rolls:
- Place a wrapper onto your work surface with one corner pointing towards you.
- Place about 3 tablespoons of cooled filling in a heap onto the bottom third of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling half way up.
- Then roll back to firmly pack filling.
- Roll firmly to the halfway point.
- Fold the sides over to the middle over the filling and use a dab of water to seal points together.
- Then continue rolling firmly to keep filling tight till almost to corner.
- Brush the edges with water and seal the egg roll.
- Repeat with remaining filling and egg roll wrappers.
- Cover finished egg rolls to keep from drying out.
