Baked Not Fried Egg Rolls image

I wanted to make egg rolls for my hubby and me but I don't own a deep fryer and to be healthier I wanted to bake my egg rolls rather than fry them. I adapted the recipe "Awesome Egg Rolls", Recipe #8674 to be baked rather than fried. This recipe is very simple, and in my opinion fail proof. These egg rolls are delicious, and crispy like restaurant egg rolls, but with out all of the grease. I hope you enjoy this healthier alternative to the traditional fried egg rolls.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h10m

Yield 20-30 egg rolls, 10-15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb lean ground beef
1 (10 ounce) package shredded cabbage
1 carrot (grated)
salt and pepper
garlic powder
20 -30 egg roll wraps
1 egg
pam nonstick cooking spray

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Brown ground beef with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Use a lot of salt, pepper and garlic powder because the flavors will decrease when the meat is mixed with the cabbage and carrots.
  • After browning meat and getting the seasoning to the right taste (try the meat to see if it has enough flavor) place the cabbage and carrots in a very large mixing bowl.
  • Add the ground beef on top of the veggies.
  • Mix well and allow to sit for about 15 minutes. This step allows the cabbage to soften for easier rolling and lets the flavors mix.
  • Taste the cabbage and see if the flavoring is still strong enough. Add more salt, pepper and garlic powder until you get a taste you enjoy.
  • Crack the egg into a small bowl to make an egg wash to use when sealing the egg rolls.
  • Place 1-2 Tbs (more or less for easy rolling of egg rolls) of cabbage/meat mixture onto each egg roll wrap.
  • Fold egg roll wrap according to directions on package being sure to wrap them tightly.
  • Brush egg wash onto wrap while folding to seal the egg rolls.
  • Place egg rolls onto cookie baking sheet.
  • Spray egg rolls with PAM. Use enough PAM to give egg rolls a nice shine.
  • Flip egg rolls over and spray all sides well.
  • Place egg rolls in oven and bake for 15 minutes Egg rolls should be blond in color and crispy. Do not let egg rolls get too dark.

Overall, I thought these egg rolls were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't great either.

The egg rolls were a bit too spicy for my taste. I would use less chili sauce next time.

I was skeptical about making egg rolls in the oven, but I was pleasantly surprised. They were just as good as fried egg rolls, without all the grease.
