Let’s Make it together

Prep Your Filling: In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground turkey until no longer pink—about 5-7 minutes. Add your chopped veggies and spices; cook until fragrant.

Assemble Your Egg Rolls: Lay out one egg roll wrapper on a clean surface. Spoon 2 tablespoons of filling onto the center. Fold in the sides and roll it up tightly like a burrito.

Heat Up the Oil: In a deep pot or fryer, heat oil to 350°F (175°C). This temperature ensures perfectly crispy rolls without being greasy.

Fry Those Bad Boys: Carefully drop 3-4 egg rolls into the hot oil at a time. Fry for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown, turning occasionally for even cooking.

Drain & Cool Off: Once golden brown, remove them with tongs and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil before serving.

Serve & Enjoy!: Pair with salsa or guacamole for dipping. Watch as these egg rolls disappear faster than you can say “Fusion Taco!”
