The image shows a close-up of two crispy and golden-brown spring rolls on a white marbled surface. The front spring roll is cut in half, revealing three main layers inside: a light beige outer layer of thin, fried pastry with a slightly bubbly texture, a thick filling layer composed of soft, mixed vegetables including small pieces of green and orange vegetables with a slightly chunky texture, and small bits of pale potatoes. Next to the spring rolls, there is a small metal cup filled with a glossy, dark reddish-brown dipping sauce.

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Place the frozen egg rolls in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure there is space between each egg roll for proper air circulation.
  2. Step 2: Lightly spritz the egg rolls with oil spray to help achieve a crispier texture.

  4. Step 4: Carefully flip the egg rolls over, increase the temperature to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, and air fry for an additional 2 minutes or until they reach your desired crispness.

Tips & Variations

  • For extra crispness, add a light spray of oil after flipping the egg rolls midway through cooking.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce such as sweet chili, soy sauce, or plum sauce for added flavor.
  • You can cook different varieties of frozen egg rolls together, just ensure they are similar in size for even cooking.

Storage

How to Serve

The image shows four golden brown egg rolls placed inside a black air fryer basket. Each egg roll is cylindrical, with a crispy, bubbly texture on the outer layer, and they are arranged diagonally across the basket. The egg rolls have a slightly uneven surface with small blistered spots from frying, and their ends are tightly sealed. The black basket has a grid pattern with holes, allowing a view of the bottom, and the background is a white marbled texture. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7
