Equipment

  • 1 large sauté pan or deep fryer
  • 1 tongs
  • 1 Cheese Grater

Ingredients

  • 12 egg roll wrappers
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
  • 1 cup marinara sauce or pizza sauce
  • oil for frying

Instructions

  • Shred mozzarella cheese. Heat oil on the stove on medium high heat.
  • Place egg roll wrapper on a flat surface so it looks like a diamond with one of the corners closest to you. Place 2 tablespoon of shredded cheese and 1 tablespoon of pizza sauce across the top half of the egg roll below the corner farthest away from you. Fold the far corner over the sauce and cheese. Fold the two side corners over the far corner and the fillings. Wet the sides of the egg roll closest to you with water by using your finger. Roll the egg roll towards you until closed and seal the edges.
  • Place egg rolls in the oil. Fry about 3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from the oil and place on a plate lined with a paper towel.
  • Pour marinara sauce into a small bowl. Serve pizza rolls immediately with marinara sauce or save for later.

  • reheat leftovers in the air fryer or in the oven.
