What is
Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls?

Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls are a delicious fusion snack that combines the classic flavors of a Philly cheesesteak with the crispy goodness of an egg roll. These savory rolls typically feature a filling of chopped steak, sautéed onions, and melted cheese, all wrapped in an egg roll wrapper and deep-fried until golden and crispy.

Origins & History

The Philly cheesesteak originated in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in the early 20th century. Traditionally made with thinly sliced steak and melted cheese served in an Italian roll, it has become an iconic American sandwich. The egg roll, with its origins in Chinese cuisine, was adapted in this dish to create a unique and popular snack or appetizer that combines elements from both culinary traditions.

Taste & Texture

The taste is a combination of savory and cheesy, with the crispy outer shell providing a delightful contrast to the tender, flavorful filling. The dish is rich and satisfying, with the flavors of beef, onions, and cheese harmonizing wonderfully in every bite.

Ingredients

Egg Roll Wrappers

Thin, doughy sheets used to wrap fillings for frying. They create a crispy exterior when deep-fried.

Steak

Thinly sliced beef, often ribeye or sirloin, which is seasoned and cooked before being added to the filling.

Onions

Sautéed or caramelized onions add sweetness and depth of flavor to the filling.

Cheese

Typically provolone or Cheez Whiz, which melts beautifully and provides creaminess to the filling.

Oil

Used for deep-frying the egg rolls, contributing to their crispy texture.
