Ingredients
Filling
- 1.5 pounds cooked steak (thinly sliced, such as ribeye or flank steak) Ensure the steak is tender.
- 1 piece onion (thinly diced) Adds a sweet aroma.
- 1 piece green bell pepper (seeded and thinly diced) Provides fresh crunch.
- 1 cup chopped mushrooms Enhances the filling with an earthy flavor.
- 1-2 tablespoons butter Used for sautéing vegetables.
- 16 pieces egg roll wrappers Crispy and golden once cooked.

Instructions
Preparation
- Cook the steak until tender, then set it aside.
- In a cast iron skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the diced onion, green bell pepper, and chopped mushrooms. Sauté until the onions are translucent and the vegetables are tender.
Assembly
- Take an egg roll wrapper and lay it flat on a clean surface.
- Scoop a generous amount of the steak and vegetable mixture into the center of the wrapper.
- Top with half a slice of provolone cheese.
Rolling
- Lift the bottom corner over the filling, tucking in the sides as you go.
- Wet the final corner of the wrapper with a little water to help seal it.
Cooking
- Preheat the air fryer to 390°F (200°C).
- Gently place the egg rolls in the air fryer basket, ensuring there's space between each.
- Lightly spray the basket with cooking spray and brush a little oil on each egg roll.
- Cook the egg rolls at 390°F for 4 minutes. After this, flip each egg roll and cook for an additional 4 minutes.
- If they look slightly undercooked, add two more minutes.
Serving
- Remove the egg rolls from the air fryer and serve hot.
- Pair them with your favorite dipping sauce for an extra kick.
Notes
For added flavor, season the steak with garlic powder or Worcestershire sauce before cooking. Let the rolled egg rolls sit for a few minutes to enhance crispiness. Experiment with different cheeses as desired.
