Prepare egg rolls: Lay one egg roll wrapper on a work surface with one corner pointed toward you like a diamond. Place about 1/4 to 1/3 cup filling in the center of wrapper. Fold the bottom corner up and over filling. Fold the left and right corners in toward the center. Push the egg roll away from you and roll toward the top corner. Brush a bit of water over the inside of that corner to help seal the egg roll. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
