Cheesesteak Egg Rolls

~ Aly in the Kitchen

My family loves when I make egg rolls. Here’s is a family favorite that everyone will enjoy but it’s a fun project to get everyone into the kitchen for a fun family cooking night.

Ingredients

  • 2 lb ground wagyu
  • 2 lb ground bison
  • 6-8 shishito peppers
  • 4 cloves of garlic, peeled and left whole
  • 3 green onions, cut in half
  • 1 medium yellow onion, peeled and halved
  • 1 Anaheim pepper, seeded and halved
  • 2 TBSP red palm oil
  • 1 TBSP Harissa spice
  • 1 TBSP Berbere spice
  • 2 tsp. Cayenne pepper
  • 2 TBSP Dried ginger granules (optional)
  • 1 TBSP Espresso rub (optional)
  • 1/8 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 lb Buffalo cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 Pepper jack cheese
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • Egg roll wrappers
  • Egg wash
  • Peanut oil for deep frying

Directions

  1. In a large heavy bottomed skillet, add red palm oil and turn the heat on medium-high. Once oil is heated, add shishito peppers, garlic, green onions, yellow onion, and Anaheim pepper. Sear peppers and onion mix on all sides until charred. Remove from skillet and let cool slightly. Once pepper mix has cooled slightly, add everything into a high powered blender and blend until combined but be careful not to over blend mixture.
  2. Add ground wagyu and ground bison to a large mixing bowl. Add blended pepper mix and all dry spices to meat and mix until well combined.
  3. Cook beef mixture on medium high heat. Add Worcestershire sauce half way through the cooking process and proceed to cook until done. Drain any excess oil from meat. Remove from heat and set aside until cool enough to handle.
  4. Cut buffalo cheddar and pepper jack cheese into small cubes and set aside.
  5. Once meat has cooled, place in large mixing bowl. Add cubed cheese and mix until combined.
  6. Add meat to egg roll wrappers, about 1/8 cup full at a time. Brush corners with egg wash and roll egg rolls according to packaging instructions.
  7. Once egg rolls are filled then deep fry on high heat until wrappers are golden brown. Remove from oil and place on draining rack.
  8. Serve immediately with cheese sauce and enjoy.
