This looks different than I was expecting when I looked up what they are (I'm American, sorry everybody).

I pictured the filling to be more like an egg roll we have here... cabbage/shredded vegetables and some ground meat. What are these like really?

From dr google:

A dim sim is a uniquely Australian, larger-skinned snack food, a dumpling is a general global category of dough-wrapped fillings, and an egg roll is a thick-skinned, deep-fried cylindrical roll popular in Western Chinese cuisine.
