Air Fryer Pork Egg Rolls

This has been such a busy week and expensive!!! We had a couple of unexpected expenses this week and I'm not sure what is wrong with us but we were both feeling down so what did we do . . . we went shopping!!! Not sure why this happens but it did make us both feel better. We found an amazing rug for our dining room and some awesome new plates. Yes, we turned our frustration into a positive! Haha The other thing we seem to do when we are down is to eat. So, why not make something new like. . . Air Fryer Pork Egg Rolls

Fun Appetizer for Game Day!!!

Pork Egg Rolls

This is the first time we have ever made Egg Rolls. And since we have decided to try and make many new recipes in our Air Fryer, why not make Pork Egg Rolls!

The filling in these egg rolls was amazing. . . I was eating it right out of the pan! We found a recipe in my favorite cookbook "Mastering the Art of Chinese Cooking" and of course, we reimagined the recipe so it would work in an air fryer egg roll. Plus, we added more ginger. Love ginger flavor.

If you are like us, Egg Rolls are one of those staples we have to order when getting Chinese food. We purchased frozen egg roll wrappers at the grocery store. This made it really easy to make the Egg Rolls.

TIP:

• Make sure to get the Egg Roll Wrappers out of the freezer and bring to room temperature.

By the way, according to the Weight Watcher site, a Restaurant pork egg roll is 7 points. These Air Fryer Egg Rolls are only 3 points!!!!! BONUS!!

So Easy To Make!!!

These Egg Rolls are amazing and super easy to make. They can be made ahead of time and then just pop them in the air fryer when you're ready for an amazing snack.

Another great Air Fryer Appetizer to make is Crab Rangoons. Both of these appetizer can be made ahead of time.

A Few Things We Use

Air Fryer

• 2 Cloves Garlic
• 1 Tablespoon Ginger
• ½ Tablespoon Peanut oil
• 6 Spring onions
• 2 Cups Chinese cabbage Small head
• 1 Tablespoon Light soy sauce
• 1 Tablespoon Oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 3 teaspoon Cornstarch
• 8 Spring roll wrappers

Instructions

• Remove egg roll wrappers from the freezer (very important to get them to thaw prior to trying to use - we learned this the hard way)

  Slice the pork into small strips
  
• Chop spring onions
  
• Slice the crisp leaf ribs of the Chinese cabbage. About two cups is needed
  
• Add ½ Tablespoon peanut oil to the sauté pan. Heat Oil
  
• Add the garlic and ginger to the oil. Heat until fragrant (do not brown).
  
• Add the Pork and stir-fry until the meat changes colors and cooks through.
  
• Remove the Pork from the sauté pan
  
• Add the Spring Onions, Cabbage, and ¼ cup of water to the Sauté pan. Saute over medium-high heat for 4 minutes or until the cabbage has wilted down and is softened (it will cook down to about a cup of cabbage)
  
• Stir the sauces into the cabbage mixture (Oyster sauce, Soy Sauce and Sesame oil)
  
• Mix the Cornstarch with one Tablespoon of water. Stir Cornstarch into the cabbage mixture. Stir the Cabbage mixture with the cornstarch until the sauce boils and thickens.
  
• Remove from heat Stir in the pork.
  
• Let the pork cabbage mixture cool before building the spring rolls (about 5 minutes). (Egg roll mixture can be placed in the refrigerator until ready to use.)
  
• Place Spring Roll Wrapper flat on a plate
  
• Place 2 Tablespoon of filling at one end of each spring roll wrapper
  
• Roll the egg roll wrapper turning in the ends so the filling will not fall out
  
• Fold the sides
  
• Brush water on the ends of the Egg roll to seal
  
• The water will seal the egg roll
  
• Lightly spray the egg rolls with butter or Olive oil spray. This will help to get them crispy. Place Egg Rolls in Air Fryer.
  
• Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray.
  
• Airfry at 400 degrees for 8 minutes and check. They should be crispy on top.
  
• Gently turn over and Airfry for 3 additional minutes or until desired crispness
  
• Enjoy!!!
