Ingredients
  

Filling Ingredients
  • 1 lb beef steak (flank or sirloin), thinly sliced
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 medium green bell pepper, diced
  • 2 cups shredded provolone or cheddar cheese
  • 1 package egg roll wrappers
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil For cooking the beef
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • for frying oil (vegetable or canola)

Method
 

Cooking the Filling
  1. Season the sliced beef with salt and pepper. In a pan over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Once heated, add the beef and cook for about 5 minutes until it becomes browned.
  2. Toss in the diced onions and bell peppers to the pan. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the veggies are tender.
  3. Remove the pan from heat and stir in the shredded cheese until it’s beautifully melted and well-combined with the beef and veggies.
Assembling the Egg Rolls
  1. Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface, and spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the beef filling onto the center. Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly. Seal the edge with a drop of water.
Frying the Egg Rolls
  1. In a deep pot or skillet, heat oil for frying over medium-high heat. Ensure it’s hot enough for frying but not smoking.
  2. Carefully drop a few egg rolls into the hot oil, frying until golden brown (about 3-4 minutes). Remove and let them drain on a paper towel.
Serving
  1. Enjoy them fresh out of the fryer with dipping sauces of your choice!

Notes

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for about 3 days or can be frozen for up to 3 months. To reheat, pop them in the oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes. Avoid microwaving as this can lead to sogess.
