Instructions
Creating Bacon Jalapeño Popper Eggrolls is a simple process that will yield delicious results. Follow these steps:
1. Cook the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the diced bacon until crispy. Drain on paper towels to remove excess grease.
2. Mix the Filling: In a bowl, combine the cooked bacon, softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped jalapeños, garlic powder, onion powder, and season with salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.
3. Prepare the Eggrolls: Lay an eggroll wrapper on a clean, flat surface, with one corner facing you. Place 2-3 tablespoons of the filling in the center of the wrapper.
4. Roll the Eggrolls: Fold the corner closest to you over the filling, then tuck in the sides. Roll tightly away from you to enclose the filling completely. Seal the edge with a dab of water to ensure it sticks. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
5. Heat the Oil: In a deep frying pan or pot, heat oil over medium-high heat to about 350°F (175°C).
6. Fry the Eggrolls: Carefully place a few eggrolls in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 3-4 minutes per side until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate.
7. Cool Slightly: Allow the eggrolls to cool for a few minutes on the paper towels before serving.
