Why Air Fry Egg Rolls?

Whether you’re looking for a healthy alternative to traditional deep-fried egg rolls or want to try something new, frozen egg rolls are great in the air fryer.

An air fryer is a kitchen appliance that cooks food by circulating hot air around it. The heat from the air cooks the food, giving it a crispy texture as you would get from frying it in oil. Air fryers are a healthy alternative to traditional deep-frying, and they’re also convenient because they don’t require any oil or butter.

Additionally, you can use an air fryer for cooking all sorts of foods, including chicken, fish, vegetables, and French fries.

FAQS:

Do You Need To Thaw Frozen Foods Before Air Frying?

For best results, I would always recommend keeping frozen foods frozen. This way, they perfectly cook up. You’ll need to deduct a few minutes off your cooking time when you air fry egg rolls if you thaw first.

What’s the difference between Egg Rolls and Spring Rolls?

Egg rolls and spring rolls are both popular Chinese appetizers. They’re both made with wrapper dough, but the egg roll wrappers are much thicker and are often dipped in egg first.

The fillings are different as well. Air fryer frozen egg rolls are typically stuffed with a pork and cabbage filling, while spring rolls often contain only vegetables. There are also uncooked spring rolls that may contain shrimp and are served cold.
