Here’s a delicious Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls recipe 🥢 — all the flavors of a Philly cheesesteak packed into a crispy egg roll.
🥢 Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls
Ingredients (makes 8–10 egg rolls)
Filling
- 1 lb (450 g) thinly sliced beef (ribeye or sirloin works best)
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced (optional)
- 1 cup shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
- 2 tbsp soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
For rolling
- 8–10 egg roll wrappers
- 1 egg beaten (for sealing)
For frying
- Vegetable oil
Instructions
- Cook the filling
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Sauté onions, bell pepper, and mushrooms until tender.
- Add beef, garlic powder, soy or Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
- Cook until beef is browned and cooked through.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Stir in shredded cheese so it melts slightly into the filling.
- Roll the egg rolls
- Place a wrapper on a flat surface in a diamond shape.
- Spoon 2–3 tbsp of filling near the bottom corner.
- Fold the bottom up, fold sides in, and roll tightly.
- Seal edges with beaten egg.
- Fry the egg rolls
- Heat oil to 350°F (175°C) in a deep skillet or pot.
- Fry egg rolls in batches 3–4 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
- Drain on paper towels.
- Serve
- Serve hot with ketchup, cheese sauce, or a creamy horseradish sauce.
💡 Tips
- Let the filling cool slightly before rolling to prevent soggy wrappers.
- Don’t overfill — makes rolling easier and prevents bursting while frying.
- Keep cooked egg rolls warm in a 200°F (95°C) oven while frying the rest.
🌟 Variations
- Cheesesteak sub style: Add banana peppers or pickled jalapeños.
- Healthier baked version: Brush with oil and bake at 400°F (200°C) for 15–18 min, flipping halfway.
- Mini egg rolls: Perfect for appetizers or parties.
I can also give you a restaurant-style Philly Cheesesteak Egg Roll version that’s extra cheesy and crispy, just like at a Philly eatery.
