Ingredients
For the Filling
- 1 cup cooked and shredded chicken (or tofu for a vegetarian option) Choose protein based on preference
- 1 cup shredded cabbage
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 8 pieces egg roll wrappers
- cooking spray For air frying
- To taste salt
- To taste pepper
Instructions
Preparation
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken (or tofu), shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, green onions, minced garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, ground ginger, and season with salt and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
- Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing towards you. Place about 2 tablespoons of the filling in the center of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly to seal the egg roll. Use a little water on your fingers to seal the edges if necessary. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
Cooking
- Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place the egg rolls in a single layer in the basket, making sure they are not touching. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Lightly spray the tops of the egg rolls with cooking spray to promote crispiness. Air fry for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the egg rolls from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with dipping sauces like sweet and sour sauce or soy sauce.
Notes
These crunchy bites can be served as an appetizer or a simple snack. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer to restore crispiness.
