10 water chestnuts
1/3 cup bamboo shoots
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. sugarLiberal dash pepper
1/2 tsp. light soy sauce
1/4 tsp. sesame oil1 beaten egg
10 egg roll skins
3 cups oil

Shredwater chestnuts and bamboo shoots. Mix all ingredients but egg together.Beat egg. Wrap filling in egg roll skins and seal with egg.
COOKING: Heat oil in wok or deep fat fryer to 375 degrees and drop in eggrolls. When skin turns light golden brown, remove from oil and drain.

The two-stage deep frying method is actually a professional Chinese chefs'secret. It assures that the inside will be moist and not overcooked (asanything overcooked becomes dry) and the outside will be crisp.
