It has been 4 years since we discovered Abby can't tolerate wheat. In those 4 years she's eaten an occasional egg roll but not without the guilt of knowing that she likely will pay for it later. Tonight, I remedied that situation!
I was googling gluten free recipes the other day when I stumbled across a recipe for Won Ton Wrappers from Gluten Free on A Shoestring. I've been getting braver lately so I thought I'd give these a shot.
Early this afternoon I mixed up the dough and rolled it out just as the recipe said. I made 4 won ton wrappers fairly easily and quickly. I stacked the wrappers on a plate with parchment paper between each wrapper. When I put the last wrapper on the plate I placed a damp paper towel over the top to keep them moist until Ben cooked them later.
Later in the evening, Ben shredded pork and fried it on the stove along with an asian salad mix. He filled the won ton wrappers, rolled them up, and dropped them in the hot oil waiting on the stove. They came out perfect!
I thought for sure that Abby would have leftovers. Who could possibly eat 4 large egg rolls? Well apparently Abby can! In just under an hour she polished off all 4 egg rolls. What a delight to see her enjoying egg rolls guilt free!
Next time I make these (and it will be soon I'm sure), I will take pictures of the process and the end product.
