Eggroll skins

12 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
cup Flour
½ teaspoon Salt
2 Eggs
cup Water

Directions

1. Combine flour and salt. Beat eggs lightly and blend in.

2. Gradually add water, beating in one direction to make a thin smooth batter.

3. Lightly grease a small skillet, as in step 3 above.

4. Beat the batter again; then pour 2 tablespoonfuls into the skillet, tilting or rotating the pan so that the batter spreads thinly and evenly over the entire surface. (Pour any excess batter back into bowl at once to make the skin as thin as possible.) 5. When the dough shrinks away from the sides of the skillet, quickly pick it up (do not let it brown) and place on a tray. Cover with a damp towel.

6. Repeat process until dough is used up, lightly re-oiling the skillet each time. VARIATION: In step 1, add 1 tablespoon cornstarch to the flour and salt.

NOTE: See "Information: Eggrolls" for a list of fillings and other information.
