Loaded Mashed Potato Egg Rolls
Description
Loaded Mashed Potato Egg Rolls combine prepared mashed potatoes blended with crumbled bacon, thinly sliced green onions, garlic and onion powders, and an egg to bind it all together. Each egg roll is filled with a portion of this potato mixture wrapped securely around a stick of cheddar cheese, ensuring the cheese is fully covered to avoid leakage during frying. The egg roll wrappers are folded carefully with tucked sides and sealed with a water dab before frying.
Frying at 350°F yields a golden, crispy crust, locking in the creamy mashed potato and melted cheese center. The savory bacon and fresh onion slices add layered flavors and texture to the soft filling. These egg rolls are best served immediately with a cool sour cream dipping sauce to balance the richness.
Ensuring the wrappers are tightly sealed and sides are tucked helps prevent hot oil splatters. These egg rolls make an appealing appetizer or side, especially for gatherings where handheld warm snacks are favored.
Ingredients
- 2 cups mashed potatoes prepared
- ¼ cup bacon bits or crumbled cooked bacon
- 2 green onions thinly sliced
- 1 large egg
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 8 ounces cheddar cheese cut into sticks approximately 3-inches long x .25-inches wide
- 8 to 10 egg roll wrappers
Instructions
- Combine cooled mashed potatoes, bacon bits, green onions, egg, onion powder, garlic powder and pepper in a large bowl. Mix until well combined.
- Wrap about 3 tablespoons of the mashed potato mixture around each stick of cheese trying to ensure it is completely covered (this helps prevent leaks).
- Lay each egg roll wrapper out with a corner pointing towards you. Place your mashed potato and cheese filling in the center of each wrapper. Fold in the sides and roll the wrapper tightly. Use a dab of water to secure the tip of the wrapper. (If you don’t know how to roll an egg roll it usually shows on the package).
- Note: It is important to make sure the sides of the wrapper are tucked in holding the ingredients in. If they leak, it can cause splattering.
- Preheat oil to 350°F. Fry each egg roll for about 4-5 minutes or until browned and crispy.
- Serve hot with sour cream for dipping.
