Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine mashed potatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean, dry surface in a diamond shape. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of filling into the center.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll tightly and seal the top edge with a bit of water.
- Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 350°F (175°C).
- Fry the egg rolls in batches for 3–4 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- Serve warm with a side of sour cream, ranch, or your favorite dip.
Variations :
- Garlic & Herb Boost: Add garlic powder, chives, or parsley to the filling for extra flavor.
- Spicy Option: Mix in a dash of hot sauce or chopped jalapeños for a zesty kick.
- Vegetarian Swap: Omit the bacon and add sautéed mushrooms or caramelized onions.
- Loaded Sweet Potato: Use mashed sweet potatoes with goat cheese and pecans for a unique twist.
Tips :
- Chill the mashed potatoes before filling—this makes the mixture easier to handle and prevents excess moisture.
- Seal well with water to prevent the rolls from opening during frying.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan while frying—work in batches to maintain oil temperature and ensure even browning.
- Reheat leftovers in an air fryer or oven to restore crispiness without extra oil.
