Ingredients You’ll Need
To recreate this dish, gather the following:
For the Filling:
- 1 lb (450g) thinly sliced beef (ribeye or sirloin works best)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced (optional but recommended)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1 cup shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
For the Egg Rolls:
- 10–12 egg roll wrappers
- Water (for sealing the wrappers)
- Oil for frying (vegetable or canola oil)
Optional Dipping Sauce:
- Ketchup
- Garlic aioli
- Cheese sauce
Step-by-Step Method
Step 1: Prepare the Beef
Start by slicing your beef as thinly as possible. If it’s slightly frozen, it will be easier to cut into thin strips. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Step 2: Cook the Vegetables
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers. Cook for about 5–7 minutes until they become soft and slightly caramelized. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Step 3: Cook the Beef
Push the vegetables to one side of the pan and add the sliced beef. Cook for 3–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meat is browned and fully cooked. Mix everything together in the pan and adjust seasoning if needed.
