PHILLY CHEESESTEAK EGG ROLLS RECIPE
Philly Cheesesteak egg rolls have all the flavors of the classic Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich in a crispy shell and made with ground beef!
INGREDIENTS
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 yellow onion chopped
- 1/2 green bell pepper chopped
- 12 slices American Cheese
- 24 egg roll wrappers
- small bowl of water
- canola oil for frying
- Start by browning the beef in the skillet.
- Try to brown without breaking up the meat too much, get a nice brown sear on the beef, then break apart as little as possible. (You want the meat to resemble a pea in size [you want to avoid taco meat consistency]).
- Add the salt, pepper and Worcestershire sauce, stir gently and remove from pan.
- Add the butter in the pan and add the chopped onions and green bell pepper, cooking until browned and caramelized.
- Once browned, add the meat back in and combine together.
- Let the mixture cool while you prepare your egg roll wrappers and cheese.
- Lay them on a flat surface and place a half a slice of American cheese on the wrapper.
- Add three tablespoons of the meat mixture on top of the cheese.
- Starting from the bottom left pull corner over the meat, then fold the two sides in.
- Wet the edges and roll tightly.
- Set a pan to heat with canola oil, about an inch high would do the trick.
- Add 3-4 egg rolls in them at once.
- Once they have browned, you can take them out and dry them on a cooling rack or brown paper bag.
RECIPE NOTES
- Make sure to keep the wrappers covered when you aren’t actively using them so they don’t dry out.
- You don’t really want to crowd the pan because they may stick together or it could even drop the temperature down too far.
- Avoid cooling on napkins and paper towels, you don’t want to capture steam under the egg roll, it will create sogginess.
