Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/2 medium yellow onion, finely minced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
- Salt and ground black pepper, to taste
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup diced pickles
- 13–14 egg roll wrappers
- 1 egg white, whisked
- Vegetable oil, for cooking
- Olive oil, for frying
Instructions
- Preheat a medium cast iron pan or non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Add one tablespoon of oil and the minced onion; sauté until the onion is translucent.
- Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon.
- Season with salt and pepper, cover, and cook until the meat starts to brown, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in garlic, mustard, and Worcestershire sauce, cooking for another minute.
- Drain off the grease and juices from the pan, then transfer the beef mixture to a large mixing bowl.
- Add the cheese to the bowl and stir until melted and evenly incorporated, then fold in the pickles.
- In a deep skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil to about 350 degrees.
- Spread about 2 tablespoons of the cheeseburger filling in a line on an egg roll wrapper, leaving about an inch on each side.
- Carefully fold the corner closest to you over the filling and tuck it under.
- Fold both side corners toward the center of the wrapper, then dip your fingers in egg white and run it along the edges to seal.
- Gently roll up the egg roll, ensuring it’s sealed tightly.
- Fry the egg rolls in batches until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes per side, turning once the bottom side turns golden.
- Serve with Thousand Island dressing for dipping.
Notes
For a crispy finish, fry the egg rolls in smaller batches. You can use gluten-free wrappers if needed.
