These Cheeseburger Egg Rolls are crispy, cheesy, and filled with a delish flavorful filling!
Ingredients
1 pound lean ground beef
4 slices bacon (chopped)
½ onion (finely chopped)
4 tablespoons barbecue sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 teaspoon yellow mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
12 egg roll wrappers (mine were 5″x5″)
6 cheddar cheese strings
oil for frying
Method
1
If using raw bacon, chop and cook in a medium skillet until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet to a paper towel-lined plate. If using pre-cooked bacon, you can skip this step. Drain the fat (don't clean the pan).
2
In the same pan, brown ground beef and onion until cooked. Drain any fat.
3
Add barbecue sauce, ketchup, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce and stir to combine. Taste the seasoning and add salt & pepper to taste.
4
Lay each egg roll wrapper out with a corner pointing towards you. Place 1 ½ tablespoons of beef filling and ½ of a cheese string in the center of each wrapper. Brush the edges of the wrapper with a little bit of water.
5
Fold the tip of the egg roll wrapper to the opposite corner creating a triangle shape. Fold in the sides and gently press. Use a dab of water to secure the tip of the wrapper and tightly roll. (If you don’t know how to roll an egg roll it often shows on the package too).
6
Preheat oil to 350°F (air fryer instructions below). Fry each egg roll for about 4-5 minutes or until browned and crispy.
7
Transfer from the oil to a paper towel lined plate. Rest 4-5 minutes before serving. Serve hot with ketchup & mustard.
