Cheeseburger Egg Rolls (Print Format)

Crispy egg rolls packed with cheeseburger flavors - ground beef, cheddar cheese, and classic burger seasonings.

# Ingredients:

→ For the Filling

01 - 1 pound ground beef or turkey
02 - 1 small onion, finely chopped
03 - 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
04 - 1/4 cup ketchup
05 - 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
06 - 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
07 - Salt and pepper to taste

→ For Assembly and Frying

08 - 12-15 egg roll wrappers
09 - 1 large egg, beaten for sealing
10 - Vegetable oil for deep frying

# Steps:

01 - Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and brown the ground beef with the chopped onion, breaking up the meat as it cooks. Once the beef is fully cooked, drain off any excess fat.
02 - Mix in the cheddar cheese, ketchup, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together and cook until the cheese melts completely. Take it off the heat and let it cool down a bit.
03 - Put about 2 tablespoons of filling in the center of each egg roll wrapper. Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, fold in both sides, then roll tightly toward the top corner. Use the beaten egg to seal the edge so it stays closed.
04 - Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large, deep skillet to 350°F. Make sure you have enough oil to completely cover the egg rolls when frying.
05 - Carefully add a few egg rolls at a time to the hot oil - don't overcrowd the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side until they're golden brown and crispy all over.
06 - Use a slotted spoon to remove the egg rolls and let them drain on paper towels. Serve them hot with your favorite dipping sauces like ketchup, mustard, or special sauce.

# Tips:

01 - These make amazing party appetizers that pack all the classic cheeseburger flavors into a crispy, handheld wrapper.
02 - For even more burger flavor, try adding some diced pickles to the filling or serve with pickle slices on the side.
03 - Let the filling cool completely before wrapping to keep the egg roll wrappers from getting soggy and falling apart.
04 - If you don't want to deep fry, you can bake these at 400°F for 15-20 minutes, though they won't be quite as crispy as the fried version.
