They are easy to prepare at home and can be fried, baked, or air-fried to golden perfection.

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 (or provolone, if preferred)
• 24 egg roll wrappers
• Small bowl of water (for sealing the wrappers)
• Canola oil (for frying)

Instructions

1. Cook the Beef: In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat, breaking it into larger chunks while cooking. Add salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce, stirring gently. Transfer the cooked beef to a plate and set aside.
2. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, melt the butter and add the chopped onions and green bell pepper. Cook until softened and caramelized. Add the cooked beef back into the pan and stir to combine. Let the mixture cool slightly.
3. Assemble the Egg Rolls:
   • Lay an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface in a diamond shape.
   • Place half a slice of American cheese in the center of the wrapper.
   • Spoon about 3 tablespoons of the beef mixture onto the cheese.
   • Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides.
   • Wet the remaining edges with water and roll the wrapper tightly, sealing it well.
4. Fry the Egg Rolls:
   • Heat about 3 inches of canola oil in a large pot to 375°F (190°C).
   • Fry 3-4 egg rolls at a time until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.
   • Remove the egg rolls and place them on a cooling rack to drain excess oil.
5. Baking Option: To bake the egg rolls, preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the egg rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet, brush or spray with oil, and bake for 15 minutes. Flip them over and bake for an additional 10 minutes until golden and crispy.
6. Air Fryer Option: Preheat the air fryer to 370°F (188°C). Place the egg rolls in the basket without overlapping, spray with oil, and cook for about 10 minutes. Flip and cook for another 10 minutes until crisp and golden.
