The egg roll is probably another variant of the famous and familiar spring roll - now a fast food of the Western world. Then again it could be a dish inspired by the European seafood crepe. If this is so, that would explain its southern background. Typically, the Cantonese steam the Egg Roll, imparting an extremely moist and succulent texture to the dish.

Add the water, a little at a time, to make a smooth batter. Heat a 7-inch skillet and add a little oil to thinly coat the bottom. Carefully pour in enough batter to make a thin pancake. Cook over low heat until the sides dry a little and shrink from the edges of the pan. Turn out and repeat until the batter is used up.

This gives them more time to drain so they will not be too wet when you stir-fry. While it's nice to own one, you don't need a cleaver to cook Chinese food. Place all the cut vegetables on a tray or cooking sheet. That way, you won't forget anything. Just be careful not to mix them up, as cooking times will vary among vegetables. Drain tofu before using, as this allows it to absorb the other flavors in the dish. Marinate fresh meat. Always cut beef across the grain. Cut the meat into uniform pieces so that it will cook more evenly. If you're not using a recipe, a general rule is to cut everything into bite-sized pieces. When adding oil for stir-frying, drizzle the oil down the sides of the wok. When deep-frying, to tell if the oil is hot enough, simply stick a chopstick in the wok. When the oil sizzles all around it, you can begin adding the food. Don't use dark soy sauce unless the recipe specifically calls for it. When a recipe simply says to add soy or soya sauce, use light soy sauce or one of the Japanese brands such as Kikkoman. If preparing stir-fried meat and vegetables, stir-fry the meat first and set it aside. Usually you will return it to the wok with a sauce during the final stages of cooking. When stir-frying vegetables, cook the toughest and thickest vegetables for a longer period than the softer, leafy vegetables. Vegetables such as broccoli, carrots, and cabbage need to be cooked longer than bok choy, which in turn is cooked longer than snow peas or bean sprouts. If you are uncertain in what order to cook vegetables, simply stir-fry them separately. Never overcook. Once you've gained a bit of experience and can "guestimate" amounts such as one teaspoon or two tablespoons, try storing sauces in plastic containers similar to the syrup dispensers used in restaurants. This cuts down on the amount of washing up after each meal. Just be sure to label each of the containers! Always use fresh ginger, not powdered. If desired, use sugar as a substitute for MSG (Monosodium Glutamate). The formula for mixing cornstarch and water is 1 to 2: for example, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water Taste the dish and adjust the seasonings as desired. And finally, in the immortal words of one of my favorite cooking teachers: "the two most important things about Chinese cooking are a hot stove and a sharp knife.
