Baking instead of deep-frying these popular Chinese appetizers allows you to serve up egg rolls for a mere fraction of the calories of the restaurant version. You don't even have to dirty a pot or pan, as the cabbage for the filling is heated up in the microwave until wilted, then mixed in with carrots, garlic, scallions, ginger, cornstarch, and sesame oil. Roll up the filling in the egg roll wrappers, arrange them on a baking sheet, and let them cook away in the oven until they're beautifully golden brown, which should take about 25 minutes. It's as easy (and delicious!) as that.
