Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
- 1 cup grated carrots
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 package egg roll wrappers
- Cooking spray or oil for spraying
- Dipping sauce of choice (sweet and sour, soy, etc.)
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a large skillet, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add ground pork and cook until browned. Drain excess fat. Stir in cabbage, carrots, green onions, garlic, ginger, and soy sauce. Cook for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are tender. Let the mixture cool.
- Wrap the Egg Rolls: Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with a corner facing you. Add about 2 tablespoons of the pork filling in the center. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold the sides inward, and roll it up tightly. Seal the edge with a little water.
- Air Fry the Egg Rolls: Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Arrange the egg rolls in a single layer, making sure they don’t touch. Spray the tops with cooking spray. Air fry for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through.
- Serve: Remove from the air fryer and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
