Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls 🥩🧀🥟✨

All the classic Philly flavors—savory steak, peppers, onions, and gooey cheese—wrapped in a crispy egg roll shell.

Ingredients

For the filling

• 1 lb ribeye or sirloin steak, thinly sliced or shaved (freeze 30 minutes for easy slicing)
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
• 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 4 oz provolone cheese, shredded (or Cheez Whiz)
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• ½ tsp salt
• ¼ tsp black pepper

For assembly

• 12–14 egg roll wrappers (not spring roll wrappers)
• 1 egg, beaten (for sealing)
• Oil for frying (vegetable, canola, or peanut)

For dipping sauce (optional)

• ½ cup mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp ketchup
• 1 tsp hot sauce or Worcestershire
• Pinch of garlic powder

Instructions

1. Sauté veggies: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook onion and peppers 6–8 minutes until soft. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds.
2. Sear steak: Push veggies to the side. Increase heat to medium-high and add the steak. Season with salt and pepper; cook 2–3 minutes until just browned.
3. Flavor & cheese: Stir in Worcestershire, then remove from heat and fold in shredded provolone (or Cheez Whiz) until melty. Let the filling cool 5–10 minutes.
4. Mix sauce: Combine mayonnaise, ketchup, hot sauce/Worcestershire, and garlic powder; set aside.
5. Fill wrappers: Place a wrapper diamond-style. Add 2–3 tbsp filling near the center. Fold bottom up over filling, tuck in sides, then roll tightly.
6. Seal: Brush the top corner with beaten egg and press to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers.
7. Fry: Heat oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry egg rolls in batches 3–4 minutes, turning, until deep golden and crisp. Drain on a rack or paper towels.
8. Serve: Rest 2 minutes, then serve hot with dipping sauce.

Pro tips

• Juicy filling: Don’t overcook the steak—keep it tender to avoid dry egg rolls.
• No leaks: Cool the filling before rolling and seal edges well with egg.
• Air fryer: Spray rolls with oil and air fry at 200°C (400°F) for 10–12 minutes, turning halfway.
• Cheese choices: Provolone for stretch, Cheez Whiz for classic flavor, or mozzarella for extra melty.
• Make-ahead: Freeze rolled (uncooked) egg rolls on a tray, then bag. Fry from frozen 1–2 minutes longer.
