Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup corned beef, deli-sliced, roughly chopped
- 3/4 cup sauerkraut, drained and patted dry
- 3/4 cup Swiss cheese, shredded
Wrapper and Dressing:
- 10 egg roll wrappers
- 1/4 cup Russian dressing (plus extra for dipping)
Cooking Ingredient:
- Cooking spray (for greasing the foil tray)
Instructions
- Arrange the workspace by preheating the oven to 400F (200C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil, then lightly coat with cooking spray for optimal preparation.
- Position an egg roll wrapper diagonally and centralize the filling ingredients: layer chopped corned beef, sauerkraut, and shredded Swiss cheese in the middle, then drizzle Russian dressing across the components.
- Create a tight seal by folding the bottom corner upward over the filling, tucking in side edges, and rolling the wrapper compactly, using water to secure the final edge.
- Strategically place rolled egg rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring minimal contact between rolls, and delicately mist the surfaces with cooking spray to enhance crispiness.
- Transfer the baking sheet into the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, rotating the egg rolls midway to guarantee uniform golden-brown coloration and crisp exterior.
- Allow the baked egg rolls to rest momentarily after removing from the oven, then plate alongside additional Russian dressing for an enhanced dipping experience.
Notes
- Swap out corned beef for turkey or plant-based protein to create a lighter, healthier version that still packs amazing flavor.
- Drain sauerkraut thoroughly to prevent soggy egg rolls, using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove excess moisture before filling.
- Brush egg rolls with egg wash instead of cooking spray for a deeper golden-brown color and extra crunch that makes them look professionally made.
- Prepare extra egg rolls and freeze them uncooked between parchment paper layers for quick future meals – they’ll bake perfectly straight from frozen with just a few extra minutes of cooking time.
