Ingredients:

1 lb ground beef

1/2 chopped green bell pepper

1 chopped yellow onion

1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tbsp butter

24 egg roll wrappers

12 slices of your favorite cheese, cut in half (Provolone or American works great)

3/4 cup vegetable oil for frying

Instructions:

Preparation: Begin by melting butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and green bell pepper, sautéing them until they’re soft and fragrant.

 

Cook the Beef: Incorporate the ground beef into the skillet, cooking until browned. Season the meat mixture with Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper, stirring well to combine.

 

Cooling Down: Allow the beef mixture to cool down slightly, making it easier to handle as you roll the egg rolls.

 

Assemble the Egg Rolls: Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface, positioning it like a diamond with one corner pointing toward you. Place a half slice of cheese across the center, diagonally.

 

Add the Filling: Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the beef mixture onto the cheese.

 

The Perfect Roll: Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, tucking it in snugly. Bring in the side corners, continuing to roll tightly. Dab the top corner with a bit of water to help seal the egg roll.

 

Repeat: Continue this process with the remaining wrappers and filling.

 

Fry to Perfection: Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C). Fry the egg rolls in batches until they’re uniformly golden brown and crispy, usually taking about 2-3 minutes per side.

 

Draining: Once fried to perfection, transfer the egg rolls to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

 

Serve and Enjoy: Serve these golden beauties warm, accompanied by your favorite dipping sauce—be it a zesty marinara, creamy horseradish, or a simple spicy ketchup.
