Units
Scale
- 8 egg roll wrappers
- 8 dill pickle spears, patted dry
- 8 slices cheddar or mozzarella cheese
- 1 egg, beaten (for sealing)
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (for dredging, optional)
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional dipping sauces: ranch, spicy mayo, or honey mustard
Instructions
- Lay out an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing toward you.
- Place a slice of cheese in the center, then top with a pickle spear.
- Fold the bottom corner over the pickle, then fold in the sides and roll tightly. Seal the edge with beaten egg.
- Repeat with remaining wrappers, pickles, and cheese.
- Mix garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper into flour or sprinkle directly over wrapped rolls for seasoning.
- Heat oil in a deep skillet to 350°F (175°C).
- Fry egg rolls in batches for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crispy.
- Drain on paper towels and let cool slightly.
- Serve warm with your choice of dipping sauces.
Notes
- Dry pickles thoroughly to avoid soggy egg rolls.
- Bake instead of fry at 400°F (200°C) for 12–15 minutes for a lighter version.
- Use flavored pickles (spicy or garlic dill) for extra variety.
- Shredded cheese can be used in place of sliced.
