Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 6 fresh jalapeños, seeded and finely chopped
  • 225 g cream cheese, softened
  • 100 g shredded cheddar cheese
  • 100 g shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 6 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 12 egg roll wrappers
  • 1 egg, beaten for sealing
  • Vegetable oil, for frying

Method
 

  1. Make the filling: In a large bowl, mix cream cheese, cheddar, mozzarella, jalapeños, crumbled bacon, garlic powder, and onion powder until fully combined.
  2. Assemble the rolls: Lay out an egg roll wrapper in a diamond shape. Place about 2 tablespoons of filling in the center. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly. Brush the top corner with beaten egg to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers.
  3. Heat oil: In a deep pan or fryer, heat oil to 180°C.
  4. Fry the rolls: Fry the egg rolls in batches for 2–3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Drain & cool: Remove and drain on paper towels. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  6. Serve: Enjoy warm with ranch or your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

  • You can make these ahead and freeze them before frying. Fry directly from frozen—just add 1–2 minutes to the cooking time.
  • For a vegetarian version, omit the bacon.
  • Control the heat by adjusting the amount of jalapeño or using mild peppers.
