Ingredients
Let’s get started with the ingredients you’ll need for this recipe. I always keep these staples in my pantry and fridge, so I’m ready whenever the craving strikes. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 1 pound ribeye steak, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 slices provolone cheese
- 12 egg roll wrappers
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- Optional: Cheese sauce for dipping
For a vegetarian twist, you can substitute the ribeye steak with portobello mushrooms or even tofu. The flavors are just as rich and satisfying.
Instructions
Cooking should be enjoyable, so I always recommend taking your time and savoring every step. Here’s how you can create these scrumptious egg rolls:
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced steak and cook for about 3-4 minutes until browned. Remove the steak and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened and fragrant.
- Return the steak to the skillet, season with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together until well combined. Remove from heat.
- Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface. Place a slice of provolone cheese over the center, then add about 2 tablespoons of the steak mixture on top.
- Roll the wrapper tightly around the filling, folding in the sides as you go. Use a dab of water to seal the edges.
- Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- In a deep pan, heat vegetable oil to 350°F. Carefully place the egg rolls in the oil and fry for 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown and crispy.
- Drain on paper towels and serve hot, with optional cheese sauce for dipping.
One tip I learned from my grandmother is to always taste as you go. Adjust seasonings according to your preference, and remember, the kitchen is your playground!
