Step 4: Add the Cheese
Remove the skillet from heat and let the mixture cool slightly. Stir in the shredded cheese while the filling is still warm so it melts slightly and binds everything together.
Step 5: Assemble the Egg Rolls
Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond shape. Place 2–3 tablespoons of the filling in the center.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling.
- Fold in the sides tightly.
- Roll upward while keeping everything snug.
- Use a little water along the edges to seal the roll.
Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Step 6: Fry to Perfection
Heat oil in a deep pan or fryer to about 175°C (350°F). Carefully place a few egg rolls at a time into the hot oil.
Fry for 3–4 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
Step 7: Serve and Enjoy
Serve your Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls hot and crispy with your favorite dipping sauce. The contrast between the crunchy exterior and the juicy, cheesy filling makes every bite incredibly satisfying.
Tips for the Best Results
- Don’t overfill the wrappers, or they may burst while frying.
- Seal tightly to prevent oil from seeping inside.
- For a lighter version, you can bake or air fry them at 200°C (400°F) until crispy.
- Try adding mushrooms or switching cheeses for a different flavor twist.
