How to make egg rolls:

Filling:3 Tbsp. oil1/2 lb. shrimp, shelled1/4 c. minced water chestnuts1/4 c. minced celery3 scallions, thinly sliced1/2 lb. bean sprouts1 Tbsp. soy sauce1 tsp. salt oil for frying Wrappers: Combine flour, cornstarch, salt, eggs and water and mix into a smooth batter. Oil a 6-inch skillet and place over medium heat. When oil is hot, pour in a tablespoon of the batter, or enough to coat the bottom of pan by tilting it to spread the batter. Cook until lightly browned on one side only. Repeat with remaining batter (reserving 1 tablespoon to seal egg rolls). Oil pan again as necessary and stack wrappers on waxed paper.

Filling: Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in wok or frying pan and stir-fry pork until it loses its pink color and cooks, about 5 minutes. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in pan and add shrimp, water chestnuts, celery and scallions. Cook, stirring, until shrimp turns pink. Add bean sprouts and mix well. Add seasonings and pork; stir to combine and turn out in colander to drain and cool.

Assembling Egg Rolls: Place a sausage-shape of filling on browned side of each wrapper. Fold sides inward toward center, then roll up. Seal flat with remaining batter. Repeat until all filling is used. Put two inches of oil in frying pan and fry egg rolls, a few at a time, turning until they are brown on all sides. Drain on paper towels, cut in thirds and serve with mustard and duck sauce. Makes about 24.
