All I can say about these is wow. I loved, loved, loved them....and my kids did too.
Ingredients:
ground beef
bacon
shredded cheese
eggroll wrappers
vegetable oil for frying (optional)
Condiments
Brown your ground beef and season it like you would do a hamburger. I seasoned mine with Creole seasoning, a few dashes of worcestershire sauce. After done, I drained the grease and then added in bacon that I had already prepared and chopped into pieces.
Wet your eggroll wrapper and place it in front of you so it looks like a diamond rather than a square ( I took this photo before I corrected it)
You want the filling to go straight from corner to corner.
Fill with ground beef and bacon mix and top with a nice heap of shredded cheese.
Roll by taking the bottom corner and tucking it under the filling. Then bring in both sides and continue to roll.
*Your wrapper needs to be wet so it will stick and not come apart when cooking.
I deep fried mine for added crispiness but you can place in the oven at 325 until brown.
Such an interesting post to read. Today while strolling at a mall I was fascinated with this cheese top burger
ReplyDeleteWhy is it called an eggroll when there is no egg involved?
ReplyDeleteBecause it's rolled up like an egg roll in an egg roll wrapper.
ReplyDeleteWhat temperature was the oil your fried these in?
ReplyDeleteDelicious!!! So easy to make I am eating some as we speak yum! Great recipe :)
ReplyDeleteThese look incredible!
ReplyDeleteI love stuffing egg roll wrappers with anything! Do a Reuben wrap - sliced up corned beef, shredded swiss, and sauerkraut then dip in 1000 island. Or a Philly cheese steak wrap - sliced steak, sauteed onions & peppers, mozzarella cheese. There are more, but you get the idea!
ReplyDeleteI have been wanting to do a Reuben!! I will definitely be trying your suggestions! Thank you!
DeleteCould these be made the night before or would they be gross and rubbery if re-heated the next day?? I was thinking of making them for a potluck at work. Maybe I could brown the hamburger tonight and get up early in the morning to fill/wrap/bake? (Will be using the oven, not deep frying).
ReplyDeleteI would suggest making them the night before and refrigerating or freezing them, then frying or baking right before you are ready to serve. They can always be microwaved! Sorry for the delay in responding, I hope you enjoyed them!
DeleteAre there specific amounts for the ingredients for this recipe?
ReplyDeleteIt depends on how many you are feeding. I have a family of 4 kids so I tend to brown quite a bit of ground beef. I would say 2 lbs of ground beef would make about 6-10 eggrolls depending on how you fill them. This is one of those recipes where it just depends on how many you want to make. The eggroll wrappers come in a pack of quite alot of wrappers, I believe mine is 50. So if you use a little ground beef, you can always wrap the wrappers up in a ziploc bag to use for later.
DeleteHow do I print this recipe out?
ReplyDeleteHi there and happy 2013! If you right click on the page, choose print. It will then print the page/recipe. Hope that helps!
DeleteMade these with Pepper Jack Cheese! WOW! Gave it a nice kick! Loved It!!
ReplyDeleteHow about hamburger, onion, bacon, and cut up cabbage? Would that be a good combo?
ReplyDeleteI made them a few nights ago. A hit with both me and boyfriend, but I added some spices and Worcestershire sauce for more flavor, and wish I would've added more cheese than I did. I think I used less than the recipe called for. Next itme I think I'll mix the cheese right with the beef.
ReplyDeleteadoreiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
ReplyDeleteThis looks extremely yummie and seems to be the perfect alternative for sushi-parties for people who don't like the sushi. :-)
ReplyDeleteapproximate time of deep frying?
ReplyDeleteIt is really fast. A matter or a minute or two until it turns golden brown and bubbles like the photos.
Deletewe always have tons of shredded cabbage that gets tossed out at work so I think I'm going to have to try this out but maybe with a ground pork instead of beef
ReplyDeletePURE GENIUS! New fan from NY Foodgasm (www.ny-foodgasm.blogspot.com)!
ReplyDeleteA friend said her uncle used to make these with ground beef and salsa verde. I thought I would give it a try tonight and I bought regular and verde enchilada sauce to dip it in! I can't wait. I will probably make the burger version for the next BBQ :)
