Ingredients

  • 14 ounce shaved beef
  • 16 ounce egg roll wrappers
  • 1 cup red bell pepper, cut into ½-inch chunks
  • 1 cup green bell pepper, cut into ½-inch chunks
  • 1 cup onion, sliced
  • ¼ cup pickled diced jalapenos
  • 12 ounce sliced white American cheese
  • 2 teaspoons Slap Ya Mama seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon granulated garlic
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
  • Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

  • In a large heavy bottom pan, heat butter or olive oil over medium heat.
  • Add onions and bell peppers and cook for about 5-7 minutes or until beginning to brown and the onions are translucent. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • In the same pan, turn the heat to medium high and add shaved beef in a single layer. Season with slap ya mama, garlic and pepper. (Do not stir meat, you want to brown it on one side.)
  • After about 4 minutes, begin by stirring and breaking apart any pieces of meat that have stuck together.
  • Cook for another 5 minutes and turn the heat off.
  • Next, add the bell pepper mixture and diced jalapeno to the meat and mix thoroughly.
  • Preheat a saucepan with oil to 350°.
  • Place a small bowl of water next to your workstation to seal egg roll wrappers.

Assemble the Egg Rolls

  • Lay out an egg roll wrapper with one of the points facing you.
  • Top with a slice of cheese and spoon about 1⁄4 cup of mixture onto the closest half of the egg roll wrapper to you.
  • Fold in the two outside corners of the wrapper over the middle.
  • Now take the end facing you and begin rolling the egg roll.
  • With your finger, or pastry brush, gently trace water over the remaining edge and roll the rest of the egg roll to seal.
  • Repeat with remaining filling and egg roll wrappers.
  • Carefully add each egg roll to the hot oil and fry on each side about 4 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Remove from oil and set on a cookie sheet topped with a baking rack to drain excess oil.
  • Repeat with remaining egg rolls.

Creamy Sauce

  • In a small bowl mix together mayonnaise and Dijon.
  • Makes 12-14 egg rolls

Notes

Tips
  • Don’t overfill the wrappers, or they’ll burst while frying.
  • Seal tightly with water to keep everything inside.
  • Fry in batches so the oil temperature stays consistent.
  • Want a lighter version? Try air frying at 375°F for 10–12 minutes.
