To make air fryer egg rolls, you simply need to fill your egg roll wrappers with your desired filling and brush them with a little bit of oil before placing them in the air fryer.

You can choose from a variety of fillings, including vegetables, meats, and cheeses, to create a unique and tasty combination that suits your preferences.

Air fryer egg rolls cook quickly and evenly, making them a great option for a quick and easy appetizer or snack.

They are also a great way to use up leftover ingredients and can be easily customized to accommodate any dietary restrictions or preferences.

One of the benefits of using an air fryer to cook egg rolls is that it eliminates the need for excess oil.

Traditional deep-frying methods can result in egg rolls that are greasy and heavy, while air frying produces egg rolls that are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside without all the added fat.

Air Fryer Egg Rolls are a tasty and healthier alternative to traditional deep-fried egg rolls.

They are easy to make, customizable, and can be enjoyed as a snack or as part of a meal. So, grab your air fryer and get creative with your egg roll fillings!

Ingredients:

• 1 package of egg roll wrappers
• 1 cup cooked shredded chicken (or any other protein of your choice)
• 1 cup shredded cabbage
• 1/2 cup shredded carrots
• 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon water
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Cooking spray

Instructions:

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cabbage, carrots, mushrooms, garlic, soy sauce, and oyster sauce (if using). Mix well.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. This will be used to seal the egg roll wrappers.
3. Take an egg roll wrapper and place it on a clean work surface. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the filling onto the center of the wrapper.
4. Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper up and over the filling. Roll the wrapper halfway up, then fold in the left and right corners. Continue rolling the wrapper up to the top corner, using the cornstarch slurry to seal the edges.
5. Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
6. Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray the egg rolls with cooking spray.
7. Place the egg rolls in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the egg rolls are golden brown and crispy.
8. Serve the egg rolls hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce or soy sauce.
