Cheesesteak Egg Rolls Recipe: A Fusion of Flavor and Crispiness


  • Author: Nova
  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 1012 cheesesteak egg rolls 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb shaved ribeye steak or thinly sliced beef (you can also use ground beef)
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 1 bell pepper (green or red), finely diced
  • 1 cup shredded provolone cheese (or your preferred cheese like American or mozzarella)
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (optional, for added flavor)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for sautéing)
  • 1 teaspoon salt

For the Egg Rolls:

  • 1012 egg roll wrappers (available in the refrigerated section of most grocery stores)
  • 1 small bowl of water (for sealing the wrappers)
  • Oil for frying (vegetable, canola, or peanut oil)

Optional Dipping Sauces:

  • Sweet chili sauce
  • Creamy cheese sauce
  • Ranch dressing

Instructions

1: Prepare the Filling

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
  2. Once the oil is hot, add the chopped onions and bell peppers. Sauté for 3–4 minutes until softened and fragrant.
  3. Add the shaved ribeye steak (or ground beef) to the skillet. Break up the meat with a spatula and cook until browned and fully cooked through. This should take about 5–7 minutes.
  4. Season the mixture with garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce (if using). Stir well to evenly coat the meat and veggies.
  5. Remove the skillet from heat and allow the filling to cool slightly. Stir in the shredded cheese until melted and combined. Set the mixture aside.

2: Assemble the Egg Rolls

  1. Lay one egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing toward you (diamond shape).
  2. Add 2–3 tablespoons of the filling mixture in the center of the wrapper. Be careful not to overfill, as this can cause the wrapper to tear.
  3. Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides to form a snug envelope shape.
  4. Roll the wrapper tightly upward, sealing the top corner with a dab of water to keep it closed. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

3: Fry the Egg Rolls

For Deep-Frying:

  1. Heat about 2 inches of oil in a deep pan or fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Carefully add 3–4 egg rolls at a time, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 3–4 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  3. Use a slotted spoon to remove the egg rolls and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

For Air-Frying:

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Lightly brush or spray the egg rolls with oil. Place them in the air fryer basket in a single layer, leaving space between each roll.
  3. Air-fry for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden.

4: Serve and Enjoy

Serve the cheesesteak egg rolls warm with your choice of dipping sauces, such as sweet chili, cheese sauce, or ranch. Garnish with fresh parsley or scallions for added flair if desired.

These egg rolls are best enjoyed fresh and crispy, but leftovers can be reheated in the oven or air fryer for a quick snack. Bon appétit!
