Instructions
To make sweet and sour sauce, in 1-quart saucepan, mix sugar, ketchup, 2/3 cup water, 1 tablespoon soy sauce and the salt. Cook 5 minutes. Stir in vinegar.
In small bowl, mix cornstarch and 1/3 cup cold water.
Add to sauce; cook until thickened.
To make egg rolls, in 12-inch skillet, cook ground beef, onion and green onions until beef is thoroughly cooked.
Add soy sauce by pouring around top of mixture about 2 times. Taste and check saltiness; you can always add more. Cook until thoroughly heated.
While cabbage mixture is cooking, place egg roll skins on large work surface. Spoon 1 serving spoon-size of beef mixture on center of each skin. For each egg roll, bring up bottom corner; fold in side corners and roll up. Bring down top corner; wet with small amount of water to stick.
In small skillet, heat oil. When oil is hot, fry egg rolls until crispy. Shake off excess oil.
