Korean Ground Beef Egg Rolls are a delicious and crispy appetizer filled with a savory mixture of ground beef, vegetables, and seasonings, perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 cup coleslaw mix (cabbage and carrots)
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 package egg roll wrappers (about 20 wrappers)
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
- Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
- Stir in the shredded carrots, coleslaw mix, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, ginger, and black pepper. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
- To assemble the egg rolls, lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing towards you. Place about 2 tablespoons of the beef mixture in the center. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides and roll tightly. Seal the top corner with a little water. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
- In a deep skillet or fryer, heat oil to 350°F. Fry the egg rolls in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
- Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet and sour or soy sauce.
Notes
- For a healthier option, bake the egg rolls at 400°F for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown.
- Add chopped green onions or water chestnuts to the filling for extra crunch and flavor.
