š Tips for Perfect Cheeseburger Egg Rolls
⨠Donāt overfill the wrappers ā too much filling will cause them to burst.
⨠Seal tightly with a dab of water to prevent leaks during frying.
⨠Drain beef well before mixing in cheese ā this keeps the filling from getting soggy.
⨠Make ahead: You can prepare and freeze the uncooked egg rolls for up to a month. Fry or air fry straight from frozen (add 1ā2 extra minutes).
š Fun Variations
š¶ļø Spicy Kick: Add chopped jalapeƱos or pepper jack cheese.
š„ Bacon Cheeseburger Style: Mix in crumbled cooked bacon.
š„ Pickle Loverās Edition: Add diced dill pickles inside the filling.
š§
Caramelized Onion Twist: Swap raw onion for sweet caramelized onions.
š§ Storage & Reheating
- Refrigerate: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Freeze: Place cooled egg rolls on a baking sheet to freeze, then store in freezer bags.
- Reheat: Air fry or bake at 375°F (190°C) for 5ā7 minutes until crisp again.
