👩🍳 Can I Deep Fry Egg Rolls Instead of Air Frying
If you prefer to deep fry instead of air fry these egg rolls go right ahead. Peanut oil is great for frying, it allows you to heat the oil without smoke and will provide a beautiful golden color.
Use a deep fryer for egg rolls or a pan with some oil, and then flip them half way through cooking.
🔪 Filling Ideas for Air Fryer Egg Rolls
Vegetables | If you want to do filling besides pepperoni and cheese, go ahead. When you do vegetables dice small and I recommend sauteing in a pan for a few minutes to help soften. Otherwise, the vegetables will be crunchy.
Meats | Canadian Bacon, Italian sausage, ground beef, etc are all great options. Just use pre-cooked meat in the wrappers.
Sauce | Buy store-bought sauce or make homemade. Either route, the wrappers will taste great. These air fryer rolls are great either route.
Recipe FAQs
You can find egg roll wrappers in the produce section at your local grocery store. They tend to be by salads, dressings, dips.
Use an oil mister to spritz your egg rolls. This will help allow your egg rolls to crisp up and told a golden color.
It is not recommended to use a cooking spray in the air fryer. It can eat and ruin the lining in your basket or air fryer trays. Use an oil mister instead. Or brush the food with oil lightly.
