Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup green onions, chopped
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning Important for flavor
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 10 to 12 egg roll wrappers
- to taste vegetable oil, for frying
Instructions
Preparation
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef until browned and no longer pink. Drain excess grease.
- Season beef with Cajun seasoning and garlic powder. Let cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, mix the beef with cheddar cheese, green onions, and carrots.
Assembly
- Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond shape.
- Add 2-3 tablespoons of filling near the center.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll tightly.
- Seal the edge with a dab of water.
Cooking
- Heat oil in a deep skillet to 350°F (175°C).
- Fry egg rolls in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown (3-4 minutes).
- Drain on paper towels and serve hot with dipping sauce.
Notes
For best results, do not overstuff the wrappers and ensure the filling is slightly cooled to avoid sogginess. If frying seems daunting, you can brush them with oil and bake instead—but expect a tender result rather than a crispy one.
