Preparation
- To make Egg Rolls: Whisk soy sauce, vinegar and 1 tsp. cornstarch in bowl to blend; set aside.
- Warm large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; coat with cooking spray. Add cabbage and carrots; cook, stirring, until cabbage is softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic, ginger, water chestnuts, edamame, peanuts and oil, stirring just until heated, about 1 minute. Add cornstarch mixture; cook, stirring, until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to plate; cover, and chill about 20 minutes to slightly cool.
- To make Hot Mustard Sauce: Whisk all ingredients in bowl to blend, and transfer to dipping bowls.
- To assemble Egg Rolls: Place several won ton skins on work surface, with a corner of each facing you (in diamond shape). Brush top corner of each with egg. Put 1 Tbs. filling in center of each; fold bottom corner, then both side corners over filling, and roll up. Place egg rolls on baking sheet dusted with cornstarch, and cover loosely with plastic as you go.
- Preheat oven to 425F. Put second baking sheet in oven for 2 minutes. Remove it, coat with cooking spray then quickly put egg rolls on it. Spray rolls, and return to hot oven.
- Bake 10 minutes, flip rolls and bake 10 minutes more, or until golden brown. Serve with mustard sauce.
