Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz thinly sliced ribeye steak (or sirloin)
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced (red or yellow for sweeter flavor)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup shredded provolone cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 12 egg roll wrappers (about 6x6 inches)
  • 1 large egg, beaten (for sealing)
  • 2 cups vegetable oil (for frying)
  • Optional Dipping Sauce:
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha or BBQ sauce

Instructions

  1. Heat a skillet over medium-high and add a splash of oil. Sauté diced onions and peppers for 3-4 minutes until soft.
  2. Add minced garlic and stir for 30 seconds.
  3. Push veggies to the side, add sliced steak, and cook for 2-3 minutes until just browned.
  4. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix and remove from heat.
  5. Let filling cool slightly, then stir in shredded provolone and mozzarella cheese.
  6. Lay out an egg roll wrapper with one corner facing you. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of filling into the center.
  7. Brush edges with beaten egg. Fold the bottom corner over filling, fold in sides, and roll up tightly. Seal the edge with more egg wash.
  8. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
  9. Pour oil into a deep pan (about 1.5 inches deep) and heat to 350°F.
  10. Using tongs, gently add 3-4 rolls at a time. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crispy.
  11. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
  12. Optional: Mix mayo, ketchup, and sriracha in a small bowl for dipping sauce.
  13. Let egg rolls cool for 2 minutes before serving. Slice in half for best cheese-pull effect.

Notes

Don’t overstuff the wrappers to prevent bursting. Keep wrappers covered with a damp towel while working. Use a thermometer to maintain oil temperature at 350°F for best results. For a lighter version, bake or air fry the egg rolls. Filling can be made ahead and refrigerated. Variations include vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, and spicy adaptations.
