Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef (or ground turkey)
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tbsp mustard
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped pickles (optional)
- 10 egg roll wrappers
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- Cook the Beef:
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain excess fat. Add the diced onion and garlic, cooking for 2 more minutes until fragrant. - Add Seasonings:
Stir in Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, mustard, salt, and pepper. Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly. - Add Cheese and Pickles:
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped pickles until the cheese melts and everything is combined. - Assemble the Egg Rolls:
Place an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface, spoon 2 tablespoons of the beef mixture into the center. Fold in the sides and roll tightly, sealing with a bit of water. - Fry the Egg Rolls:
Heat oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 350°F. Fry the egg rolls in batches for 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels. - Serve:
Serve warm with ketchup, mustard, or your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- Freezing: You can freeze the egg rolls before frying. Lay them on a baking sheet in a single layer and freeze for 1-2 hours, then transfer to a freezer bag. Fry directly from frozen for about 5-6 minutes.
- Baking Option: For a healthier version, bake at 400°F for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Cheese Variations: Try using American cheese or pepper jack cheese for a different flavor.
