Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef (454 g)
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 cup chopped dill pickles or sweet pickles (240 ml)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (113 g)
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) prepared yellow mustard, or to taste
- 1 (16 ounce) package egg roll wrappers (454 g)
- 1 cup vegetable oil for frying (240 ml)
Instructions
- Put the beef and chopped onion in a frying pan over medium heat, stirring for roughly 10 minutes, while breaking the beef into small pieces as it cooks. Drain the excess liquid and move the beef to a bowl. Add the chopped pickles, cheese, and mustard to the meat, then mix thoroughly.
- Prepare a baking tray with parchment paper. Keep a bowl of water nearby. Take one egg roll wrapper from the package, and cover the remaining wrappers with a damp paper towel to keep them moist.
- Lay the wrapper flat with one corner pointing towards you. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the beef mixture onto the wrapper, then fold the top corner down over the filling. Roll the wrapper tightly into a log shape, tucking the sides in as you go, until the filling is fully enclosed. Use a bit of water to moisten the remaining corner and seal the egg roll tightly to prevent leakage. Arrange the filled egg rolls on the parchment-lined tray, covering them with a slightly damp paper towel as you continue the process.
- Warm the oil in a deep pot or fryer until it reaches 365°F (185°C). Gently place 2 or 3 egg rolls at a time into the hot oil, frying them for about 4 to 5 minutes, turning them once, until they are golden brown. Use tongs to remove the egg rolls and let them drain on paper towels.
Notes
- Consider using lean ground beef or turkey for a healthier option.
- Experiment with different cheeses like pepper jack or mozzarella for varied flavors.
- Serve with sweet chili sauce or ranch dressing for added taste.
