🥘Ingredients

For the Filling

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 pound lean ground beef

1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced

1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

4 slices provolone cheese, torn into pieces

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

For the Egg Rolls

8 egg roll wrappers

1 egg, beaten (for sealing)

👨‍🍳Directions

1Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook, breaking it apart, until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove beef with a slotted spoon and set aside.

3In the same skillet, add sliced onion and bell pepper. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano. Cook for 1 more minute.

4Return the beef to the skillet. Stir in provolone and mozzarella until melted and combined. Remove from heat.

5Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner facing you. Place about 2 tablespoons of the filling in the center. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly. Brush the top corner with beaten egg to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers.

6Place the egg rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with beaten egg. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until golden and crispy.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Philly Cheese Egg Rolls

1. Can I make these Philly cheese egg rolls ahead of time?

Yes, you can assemble the egg rolls up to a day in advance. Keep them covered in the fridge, then bake them just before serving. They also reheat well in an air fryer or oven.

2. Can I use a different type of cheese?

Absolutely. Provolone and mozzarella are classic, but you can use cheddar, Monterey Jack, or even a cheese sauce. Just make sure it melts well.

3. Can I make these gluten-free?

Yes, use gluten-free egg roll wrappers if available. Alternatively, you can use large lettuce leaves or rice paper wrappers for a gluten-free option.

4. How do I keep the egg rolls from getting soggy?

Make sure to drain any excess liquid from the beef and vegetable mixture before filling the wrappers. Also, brushing the tops with egg and baking at a high temperature helps them stay crispy.

5. Can I fry these instead of baking?

Yes, you can deep fry them in oil at 350°F for 3-4 minutes until golden brown. Or pan fry them in a shallow layer of oil for about 2 minutes per side.
