3. Cook the Egg Rolls

You have two main options: deep frying or air frying.

Option 1: Deep Frying

  1. Heat 2–3 inches of vegetable oil in a pot or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Carefully add the egg rolls, 2–3 at a time, and fry for 3–5 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown and crispy.
  3. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Option 2: Air Frying

  1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Lightly spray the egg rolls with oil and place them in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  3. Cook for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.

4. Serve

  • Serve hot with optional cheese sauce, ketchup, or spicy mayo for dipping.
  • These egg rolls are best eaten immediately while crispy, but they can also be reheated in an air fryer to maintain crunch.

Tips for the Perfect Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls

  • Thin slicing is key: Thick beef will overcook or make the egg roll difficult to seal.
  • Don’t overfill: Too much filling may burst the wrapper.
  • Cheese options: Provolone gives the classic Philly taste, but mozzarella or even cheddar can work for a melty twist.
  • Vegetable variations: Add mushrooms or jalapeños for extra flavor.

These Egg Rolls with Philly Cheesesteak Flavor are a guaranteed crowd-pleaser—crispy on the outside, cheesy and savory on the inside, and perfect for anyone who loves a creative twist on a classic sandwich.
