Ingredients

This recipe was developed at its original yield. Ingredient amounts are automatically adjusted, but cooking times and steps remain unchanged. Note that not all recipes scale perfectly.

Original recipe (1X) yields 24 servings:

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• teaspoon salt
• teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
• medium green bell pepper, chopped
• 24 egg roll wrappers
• 12 slices American cheese, cut in half
• cup vegetable oil for frying

Directions

Step 1: In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat. Use a spatula to break the beef into small, pea-sized pieces. Continue cooking until browned, about 5 to 7 minutes.

Step 2: Stir in Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Once mixed, transfer the beef mixture into a bowl and set it aside.

Step 3: In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are soft and translucent, about 5 to 7 minutes.

Step 4: Return the cooked beef mixture to the skillet and stir well to combine with the onion and bell pepper. Remove the skillet from heat and allow the mixture to cool for about 10 minutes.

Step 5: Lay the egg roll wrappers flat on a clean surface. Place a half slice of American cheese onto each wrapper, followed by approximately 3 tablespoons of the beef and vegetable filling.

Step 6: Fold the bottom left corner of each wrapper up over the filling. Fold in the two sides and moisten the edges with a little water to seal them. Roll the wrapper tightly to form the egg roll.

Step 7: Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Working in batches of 3 to 4, fry the egg rolls until they are golden and crispy on all sides, about 3 to 4 minutes.

Step 8: Remove the egg rolls from the oil and drain them on a plate lined with paper towels.
