A Philly Cheesesteak Egg Roll is a delicious fusion dish that combines the flavors of a traditional Philly cheesesteak with the crispy and portable nature of an egg roll. Here’s a basic recipe for you to try:
Ingredients:
- 1 pound thinly sliced ribeye steak
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 onion, thinly sliced
- 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 8 egg roll wrappers
- 8 slices of American or provolone cheese
- Oil for frying
- Optional: sautéed mushrooms, hot peppers, or other toppings you enjoy on a cheesesteak
Instructions:
- In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced ribeye steak and cook until browned. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Push the cooked steak to one side of the skillet and add the sliced onions and bell peppers. Cook until the vegetables are softened and caramelized.
- Remove the skillet from heat and assemble the egg rolls. Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner facing you (diamond shape). Add a slice of cheese in the center, then spoon some of the steak and vegetable mixture on top.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll it up tightly. Seal the edges with a little water.
- In a large, deep pan, heat oil for frying to 350°F (175°C). Carefully place the egg rolls in the hot oil and fry until golden brown, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking.
- Remove the egg rolls and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve the Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls with your favorite dipping sauce, such as marinara, cheese sauce, or even a homemade aioli.
