Equipment:
- Skillet
- Mixing bowl
- Baking sheet (optional)
- Deep fryer or large pot
- Slotted spoon
- Paper towels
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/2 cup diced onions
- 1/2 cup diced pickles
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup mustard
- 12 egg roll wrappers
- Oil for frying
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Cook the Beef:
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and diced onions until the beef is browned and the onions are translucent. Drain excess fat.
- Stir in the diced pickles, shredded cheddar cheese, ketchup, and mustard. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.
- Assemble the Egg Rolls:
- Lay out an egg roll wrapper with one corner pointing toward you. Place about 2 tablespoons of the beef mixture in the center of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll up the wrapper tightly, sealing the top corner with a bit of water. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
- Fry the Egg Rolls:
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the egg rolls in batches for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the egg rolls to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve:
- Serve the egg rolls hot with dipping sauces such as ketchup, mustard, or ranch dressing.
Tips:
- For a healthier option, you can bake the egg rolls in a preheated 400°F (200°C) oven for 15-20 minutes, turning halfway through.
- Add chopped bacon or jalapeños to the filling for extra flavor.
