Cheesesteak-Style Egg Rolls

  • In the same skillet, sauté diced onion and green pepper until soft and caramelized, about 5 minutes.
  • Combine the cooked steak with the caramelized vegetables and set aside to cool slightly.

2. Assemble Egg Rolls

  • Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond shape with one corner pointing toward you.
  • Place a slice of provolone cheese in the center of the wrapper.
  • Spoon 2–3 tablespoons of the steak and vegetable mixture on top of the cheese.
  • Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold the left and right sides toward the center.
  • Roll the wrapper tightly toward the top corner. Brush the top corner with the beaten egg to seal.
  • Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.

3. Fry Egg Rolls

  • Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  • Fry egg rolls in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 3–4 minutes per batch.
  • Avoid overcrowding the skillet.
  • Remove egg rolls and drain on paper towels.

4. Serve

  • Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ranch, spicy mayo, or marinara.

Chef’s Tips

  • Cheese Choice: Provolone melts beautifully, but Swiss or mozzarella also work well.
  • Steak Options: Use tender cuts like sirloin or ribeye; flank steak works too if thinly sliced.
  • Crispy Egg Rolls: Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying—too cool and the wrappers absorb oil.
  • Make Ahead: Assemble the rolls ahead of time and refrigerate until ready to fry for parties or meal prep.
  • Healthier Option: Bake the egg rolls at 400°F (200°C) for 15–18 minutes, turning halfway for a lighter version.

These Cheesesteak-Style Egg Rolls are crispy, savory, and loaded with flavor—a guaranteed hit for gatherings or a special family dinner.
