I never thought I would be making homemade egg rolls, but once I received an air fryer, I totally became doing anything in my air fryer. It is so much less intimidating than a regular oven.

These are some of the most popular appetizers at Chinese Food Restaurants in America. Egg Rolls are the perfect finger food and really kid-friendly since you eat them with your hands, and they are so tasty.

Egg rolls differ from spring rolls, as egg rolls are typically thicker. as they are made with egg dough, whereas spring rolls are made out of rice-flour paper. Spring rolls are often served both hot or cold, whereas egg rolls are usually served cold unless you are like my kids, and grab them from the refrigerator around 10 pm, as part of a snack.

They are typically deep-fried, but since I have an air fryer, I have been making them in there, and they are healthier and require very little oil to crisp them up.

Now, egg rolls look really hard to make, but they are easy, the hardest part is making the filing, but if you know how to make a stir-fry, then you are good to go. I made this filling in my Instant Pot since I am always cooking with it.

Note: I made the filling in my Instant Pot, it was amazing, if you are looking for an easy meal, and you don’t want to make the egg rolls, try it, my kids were scooping it out and eating it. I actually had to make two batches to get pictures for my egg rolls.

It’s amazing!

One of the hardest parts of making egg rolls is finding the wrappers in the store. Where do you buy them? In any grocery store in the United States, the weirdest part is that you can find them in the produce aisle, right next to the Tofu and Tempeh. Weird place for them, in my opinion, but I guess they are there for a reason? If anyone knows why, please drop me a line, I would love to know?

To Make the Egg Rolls (Any Egg Rolls)

Start by laying out the egg roll on a flat surface, I usually place in on my cutting board, which provides a flat surface and allows me to cut if needed.

Rolling Your Egg Rolls

• Start by placing one of the egg roll wrappers on the cutting board, and then place the egg roll wrapper with a corner pointed towards you.
• Then place the cooked filling into the middle of the egg roll wrapper.
• In a small bowl, beat an egg in it, then use a pastry brush and spread it over the edges.
• Fold two opposite corners together to make a triangle, then fold the sides in and then roll tightly.
• Seal the edges with more of the beaten egg.
