03 - Heat 2 inches of oil in deep skillet to 350°F. Fry egg rolls in batches, cooking 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to paper towels to drain excess oil.

05 - Preheat air fryer to 400°F. Place egg rolls in single layer, lightly spray with cooking spray. Air fry 8-10 minutes, turning once halfway, until exterior is crisp and golden.
06 - Allow egg rolls to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Accompany with additional buffalo sauce, ranch dressing, or blue cheese dressing for dipping.

  • Ensure a Tight Seal: Be sure to use enough water on the final corner of the wrapper to create a strong seal, preventing the filling from leaking during frying.
  • Don't Crowd the Pan: When frying or air frying, cook in batches to ensure the hot air or oil can circulate around each roll for maximum crispiness.
  • Temperature Check: For frying, using a thermometer to keep the oil at 350°F is key to achieving a golden-brown finish without burning the wrapper.
