Notes

  • If you'd like to add a different protein to this egg roll recipe, it must be cooked before being placed inside the egg roll wrapper. Some other protein ideas: chicken, beef, sausage, shrimp, tofu, or veggie egg rolls!
  • In most grocery stores, you'll find egg roll wrappers in the produce section near bottle salad dressings and sauces.
  • Make sure not to overcrowd your air fryer, this way the air can circulate around the egg rolls and cook them perfectly. Cook them in batches if needed.
