Recipe View 4 mins Heat 3 to 4 inches of vegetable oil in a deep fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Working in batches, carefully place the egg rolls into the preheated oil and fry until they turn golden brown, approximately 2 to 4 minutes per batch. (approx. 15 minutes)

Recipe View Remove the fried egg rolls and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

For an extra crispy texture, double fry the egg rolls. After the initial fry, let them cool slightly, then fry them again for another minute.
Adjust the amount of soy sauce and pepper to your preference. A dash of sesame oil can also enhance the flavor.
Ensure the oil temperature remains consistent for even cooking. If the oil is not hot enough, the egg rolls will absorb too much oil and become soggy.
These egg rolls can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before frying. Make sure to cover them with a damp cloth to prevent them from drying out.

    I tried baking them instead of frying, and they still turned out pretty good, though not as crispy.

  • Kian Hackett

    Next time, I might try using ground pork or chicken instead of shrimp, just to change things up.

  • Louie Schamberger

    Be careful not to overfill the wrappers, or they will burst during frying. I learned that the hard way!

  • Ali Wuckert

    Freezing them was a great idea! I had egg rolls on hand whenever I wanted a quick snack.

  • Carmen Stamm

    I added a little sriracha to the filling for some extra heat – delicious!
