Directions
Step 1 -In a skillet over medium heat, add the pork, 1 tablespoon of the grated ginger, 1 clove of the minced garlic, the onion powder, the Chinese five spice, and 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce, and cook, while crumbling the meat, until the pork is no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 2 -Add the coleslaw and cook until it starts to soften, about 3 minutes.
Step 3 -Allow the pork mixture to cool slightly.
Step 4 -In a deep pot on the stovetop, preheat the canola oil to 375 degrees F.
Step 5 -In a small bowl, add the flour and the water and whisk to combine.
Step 6 -Lay out one of the egg roll wrappers with a corner pointed toward you and place about 1/4 cup of the pork mixture in the center.
Step 7 -Using your finger, spread a little bit of the flour-water mixture along the edges of the egg roll wrapper.
Step 8 -Fold two of the corners of the egg roll wrapper together to make a triangle.
Step 9 -Fold the sides of the egg roll wrapper in and roll tightly, sealing the edges with a little more of the flour-water mixture, as needed.
Step 10 -Repeat the filling and wrapping process with the remaining pork mixture and the remaining egg roll wrappers until all of the pork mixture is used.
Step 11 -Working in small batches, fry the egg rolls in the hot oil, while turning them occasionally, until lightly browned and crispy, about 1-3 minutes.
Step 12 -Place the fried egg rolls on a clean plate lined with paper towels and repeat until all of the egg rolls are fried.
Step 13 -In a clean skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil.
Step 14 -Add the remaining garlic and the chili flakes to the hot olive oil and cook, while stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Step 15 -Add the remaining soy sauce, the honey, the orange juice, the remaining minced ginger, the lime juice, the sesame seeds, and the sesame oil and stir to combine.
Step 16 -Cook the sauce mixture until the flavors have melded together and the sauce is slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
Step 17 -Cut the egg rolls in half and place them on a serving platter.
Step 18 -Serve the egg rolls with the sesame sauce.
