Equipment

  • 1 large skillet or deep fryer
  • 1 large frying pan
  • 1 sharp knife and cutting board

Ingredients

  • 12 egg roll wrappers
  • 8 slices chipped steak frozen
  • ½ onion diced
  • ½ lb American cheese Cooper Sharp brand
  • canola oil for frying

Instructions

  • Dice the onions. Sauté the onions in a little olive oil on medium heat in a small frying pan. Cook until slightly caramelized.
  • In a large frying pan or skillet, cook the frozen chipped steak on medium-high heat, draining the grease as necessary. Cook the steak about 4-5 minutes. Add in the sautéed onions, mix in. Add the American cheese. Mix in. Cook until cheese is melted into the meat and creamy. About 1-2 minutes.
  • Place an egg roll wrapper on a flat surface so the bottom corner of the wrapper is closest to you. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of cheesesteak mixture across the top half of the egg roll wrapper. Take the corner of the wrapper furthest away from you and fold over the cheesesteak meat. Fold the two corners on either side of the egg roll wrapped over the corner that was folded over the meat. Using your finger, line the unfolded sides of the egg roll wrapper with water. Roll the meat filled part of the egg roll towards you until the corner that has been lined with water is folded in and sealed to close the egg roll.
  • Heat up canola oil until the oil temperature is at 350 degrees in a deep fryer or on the stove in a large skillet on medium-high heat. Place the egg rolls in the hot oil one at a time. Fry for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown flipping halfway through to assure an even fry. Remove egg rolls and place on a baking sheet lined with paper towels or a wire cooling rack to drain grease. Serve immediately with dipping sauce or save for later.

Notes

  • save leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
  • wait until the egg rolls are cooled to room temperature prior to storing in the airtight container so the egg rolls do not get soggy.
  • these ingredients stand up well to freezing for up to 2 months.
  • leftovers can be heated up in the oven or air fryer prior to serving.
