Air Fryer Egg Rolls

My mom taught me how to make egg rolls, and since she has passed away I think of her every time I make them. These air-fryer egg rolls taste so good, you'll never want a fast-food egg roll again.

Average Rating: 0

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Cook: 15 min./batch
YIELD: 18 servings.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups hot water
  • 3 cups fresh bean sprouts
  • 1 pound ground chicken
  • 6 green onions, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh gingerroot
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 jar (11 ounces) Chinese-style sauce or duck sauce, divided
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce or soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 package (14 ounces) coleslaw mix
  • 1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
  • 18 egg roll wrappers

Instructions

  • 1. Pour hot water over bean sprouts in a small bowl; let stand 5 minutes. Drain.
  • 2. Meanwhile, in a Dutch oven, cook chicken over medium heat until no longer pink, 6-8 minutes, breaking into crumbles. Add green onions, ginger and garlic. Cook 1 minute longer; drain. Stir in 1/2 cup Chinese-style sauce, fish sauce and soy sauce; transfer to a large bowl. Wipe pan clean.
  • 3. In the same pan, cook and stir coleslaw mix, spinach and drained bean sprouts until crisp-tender, 4-5 minutes. Stir into chicken mixture. Cool slightly.
  • 4. Preheat air fryer to 400°. With one corner of an egg roll wrapper facing you, place 1/3 cup filling just below center of wrapper. (Cover remaining wrappers with a damp paper towel until ready to use.) Fold bottom corner over filling; moisten remaining wrapper edges with water. Fold side corners toward center over filling. Roll egg roll up tightly, pressing at tip to seal. Repeat.
  • 5. In batches, arrange egg rolls in a single layer in greased air-fryer basket; spritz with cooking spray. Cook until golden brown, 8-12 minutes. Turn; spritz with additional cooking spray. Cook golden brown, 4-6 minutes longer. Serve with remaining Chinese-style sauce.
