Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls
Ingredients:
- 1 pound of thinly sliced ribeye steak (or sirloin)
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 1 large green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 8 ounces of provolone or American cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 12 egg roll wrappers
- 1 beaten egg (for sealing the egg rolls)
- Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions:
- Preparing the Filling:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the thinly sliced ribeye steak and cook until it’s nicely browned and slightly crispy on the edges. Season it with salt and pepper, then set it aside.
- In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the onions and green bell peppers until they’re soft and slightly caramelized.
- Return the cooked steak to the skillet, drizzle it with Worcestershire sauce, and mix everything together. Set it aside to cool.
- Assembling the Egg Rolls:
- Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond shape.
- Spoon approximately 2 tablespoons of the Philly cheesesteak filling onto the center of the wrapper, then sprinkle some shredded cheese over it.
- Fold the corner closest to you over the filling, tucking it underneath. Fold in the two side corners towards the center. Brush the remaining corner with beaten egg, then roll the egg roll away from you, sealing it securely. Repeat this process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- Frying the Egg Rolls:
- Heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C) in a large saucepan or deep fryer.
- Carefully add the prepared egg rolls into the hot oil, cooking them in batches to avoid overcrowding.
- Fry them for 3 to 4 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Serve the Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls warm with your favorite dipping sauce, whether it’s spicy ketchup, sriracha mayo, or cheese sauce.
