  • Cook the egg rolls in batches so that they don't overcrowd the pan.
  • Serve the egg rolls with a dipping sauce, such as the creamy cilantro dipping sauce.
  • For a vegetarian version of the egg rolls, omit the ground beef and add more vegetables.
  • To make the egg rolls ahead of time, assemble them and then freeze them. When you're ready to cook them, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight and then fry them.
