Ingredients
Beef Mixture:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 small onion diced
- 4 slices american cheese diced
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- salt and pepper (to taste)
- 8 spring roll wrappers
- 2 tablespoons water for sealing wrappers
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water, for sealing the rolls
- vegetable oil (for frying)
Dipping Sauce:
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons sweet pickle relish
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 1 tablespoon minced onion
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
For the beef mixture:
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and diced onion to the skillet. Cook until the beef is browned and the onion is softened.
- Drain any excess grease from the skillet, then return it to the heat. Add the diced American cheese, ketchup, and salt and pepper to the skillet. Stir until the cheese is melted and everything is well combined. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
Assembly:
- Lay one spring roll wrapper on a clean surface. Place about 2 tablespoons of the cheeseburger filling diagonally across the center of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper up over the filling. Fold in the sides, then roll tightly towards the top corner, sealing the edges with a mixture of cornstarch and water.
- Repeat this process for the remaining spring roll wrappers and filling.
Frying:
- In a large skillet or pot, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- Carefully place a few spring rolls into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry them until golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally for even cooking. This should take about 3-4 minutes per batch.
- Once the spring rolls are cooked, remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Dipping Sauce:
- In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sweet relish, ketchup, minced onion, and paprika. Mix well until all the ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.
- Serve the cheeseburger spring rolls hot with the dipping sauce on the side. Enjoy!
