While sushi is readily available in Ukraine - other ethnic food is oddly absent. There are a few Chinese restaurants - and they have good food - but its expensive and one item that is sadly absent are egg rolls.
So I experimented a few weeks ago when ground pork was on speacial and found it really wasn't too hard to make eggrolls - the most formidable obstacle - the wrappers - was overcome by discovering that lavash works perfectly.
A friend also pointed out that I could make bean sprouts from lentils found in the market and as ginger has suddenly become readily available - we cam make some really tasty Chinese food. The rolls turned out so well, that paired with stirfry and fried rice - we're not sure if we'll be dining out for Chinese in Ukraine ever again.
