Vegetarian Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls: Swap the steak for sautéed mushrooms and onions for a vegetarian-friendly version. You can add some tofu or plant-based protein for added texture.
Cheese Options: While provolone is the classic choice, you can also try mozzarella, cheddar, or even a spicy pepper jack cheese for a flavor twist.
Spicy Philly Cheesesteak: Add some sliced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the filling for an extra kick.
Air Fryer Method: If you're looking for a healthier option, try cooking the egg rolls in an air fryer. Preheat to 375°F (190°C), lightly spray the egg rolls with cooking spray, and air fry for about 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
FAQ:
Q: Can I use a different type of meat? A: Yes! While ribeye steak is ideal for its tenderness and flavor, you can substitute with flank steak, chicken, or even ground beef if preferred.
Q: How do I prevent the egg rolls from leaking during frying? A: Make sure to seal the egg rolls tightly by pressing the edges of the wrapper together with a bit of water. This helps to keep the filling inside.
Q: Can I make the filling ahead of time? A: Yes! You can prepare the Philly cheesesteak filling in advance and refrigerate it for up to 2 days. Assemble and fry the egg rolls when you're ready to serve.
Q: How do I make these egg rolls crispy without deep frying? A: You can bake them in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes or use an air fryer to get that crispy texture without the extra oil.
