Ingredients

• 1 cup, finely chopped Corned beef
• 1 cup, shredded Cooked cabbage
• 1 cup Mashed potatoes
• 1 cup Shredded Swiss cheese
• 12 pieces Egg roll wrappers
• 0.25 cup Water
• 2 cups (for frying) Vegetable oil
• 0.5 cup (for dipping) Thousand Island dressing

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the chopped corned beef, shredded cabbage, mashed potatoes, and shredded Swiss cheese. Mix thoroughly to create the filling.

Step 2

Lay out one egg roll wrapper on a clean, dry surface with one corner pointing towards you (like a diamond).

Step 3

Place approximately 2 tablespoons of the filling in the center of the wrapper.

Step 4

Dip your finger in water and moisten the edges of the wrapper to help seal it.

Step 5

Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the left and right corners to enclose the filling. Roll tightly towards the top corner to form a sealed egg roll. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.

Step 6

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by dropping a small piece of wrapper into the oil—it should sizzle immediately.

Step 7

Carefully place 3-4 egg rolls into the hot oil, seam side down, and fry for 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.

Step 8

Remove the fried egg rolls with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Step 9

Repeat the frying process with the remaining egg rolls.

Step 10

Serve warm with Thousand Island dressing for dipping.
