Instructions
- Step 1: In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground pork, 1/2 cup chopped shiitake mushrooms, 1 medium grated carrot, 3 chopped green onions, and 3 minced garlic cloves. Season with 1 tbsp fish sauce, 1 tbsp soy sauce, and 1/2 tsp black pepper; mix thoroughly until well combined.
- Step 2: Lay one eggroll wrapper on a flat surface with a corner pointing toward you. Place 2 tbsp of pork filling near the corner, fold the corner over the filling, fold in the sides tightly, and roll up firmly. Seal the edge with a little water. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
- Step 3: Heat 1 cup vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Fry eggrolls in batches for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
- Step 4: For pickled carrots and daikon, combine 1 cup julienned daikon, 1 cup julienned carrots, 1/2 cup white vinegar, 1/4 cup sugar, 1/2 cup water, and 1 tsp salt in a jar. Stir to dissolve sugar and salt, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
- Step 5: Serve hot eggrolls with pickled vegetables and a side of nuoc cham dipping sauce if desired.
