Just look at how crispy and golden brown this egg roll is!

So now let me tell you what you'll need to make these egg rolls, which are also a great snack!

🥘 Ingredients

Here's what you will need to make this easy recipe:

  • Frozen egg rolls
  • Cooking spray
  • Your favorite dipping sauce
A package of Tai Pei Pork Egg Rolls, bottle of Pam Olive Oil Cooking Spray, frozen egg rolls on a white plate and 2 small bowls with dipping sauces.

Egg Rolls

My favorite brand of frozen egg rolls is Tai Pei Egg Rolls. I've used the Tai Pei Pork Egg Rolls for this recipe. The description of these pork egg rolls from TaiPeiFood.com is: "Yummy seasoned pork and veggies tucked inside crispy wrappers make our Pork Egg Rolls burst with flavor. They’re perfect for dunking in our delicious dipping sauce." They are definitely yummy!

Tai Pei has a great selection of various egg rolls to choose from. Their brand also includes Mini Vegetable Spring Rolls, Vegetable Egg Rolls, Chicken Egg Rolls, and Shrimp Egg Rolls in their line of appetizers.

So I can highly recommend Tai Pei Egg Rolls for this recipe, or feel free to sub your favorite brand of frozen egg roll.

Cooking Spray

For best results you will also need a cooking spray. A great option is an olive oil cooking spray. You can also use a vegetable oil or avocado oil cooking spray. Spraying the egg rolls with the cooking spray will help to crisp and crunch them up, so you'll definitely want to use this!

I have read that aerosol cooking sprays, like the one I used, can damage your air fryer basket. So, you may want to use a cooking spray that comes in a mister bottle instead. If you use the aerosol, don't spray the food while it's in the air fryer. Spray the food outside of the air fryer and then transfer the food to the basket.

Dipping Sauce

The last item you will need is your favorite sauce to dip your crunchy rolls in. Tai Pei Egg Rolls include dipping sauce to accompany the egg rolls.

Some recommended dipping sauces include sweet chili sauce, sweet and sour sauce, soy sauce, spicy mustard, or even duck sauce.

Ok, now let's fire up your air fryer and make these delicious Asian appetizers!

🔪 Instructions

Start by spraying your egg rolls liberally with your cooking spray. If you use an aerosol like the one pictured below, do not spray the food when it's in the basket. Spray the food outside of the basket, and then transfer it to the air fryer.

We will air fry the egg rolls at 380 degrees F. If your air fryer needs to be preheated, then preheat it to 380F.

Then place the egg rolls in the bottom of your air fryer basket. They need to be in a single layer and not crowded, with space between the egg rolls.

Set the timer for 6 minutes. Air fry for 6 minutes, and then flip the egg rolls over. Cook an additional 6 minutes for a total of 12 minutes.

Now, I use the GoWise air fryer which is a basket style air fryer. Please note, that there are variations amongst different air fryers so you may need to adjust your cooking time just a bit.

What you are looking for is a crispy golden brown exterior with a lovely and hot interior. You may need to reduce or extend the cooking time just a bit to get your desired result.

Feel free to open your air fryer basket and take a peek at anytime during the cooking process. This will help you determine whether you may need to adjust the cooking time for your egg rolls. And it's super fun to take a peek at the crisping that's going on in your air fryer!

Let the egg rolls rest for 1 minute in your air fryer, and then they are ready to serve!

Suggestions For Serving

Making these egg rolls is so quick and easy, which makes them the perfect quick snack! Just dip the cooked egg rolls into your sauces of choice and munch away!
