Ingredients
- 1 lb (450 g) ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (or 1/2 tsp garlic powder)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup diced pickles (optional)
- 12–15 egg-roll wrappers
- Oil for frying (vegetable or canola)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce (optional)
- 1/2 tsp mustard or mustard powder (optional)
Instructions
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook diced onion and garlic until softened.
- Add ground beef, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire (if using). Cook until fully browned. Drain excess grease.
- Transfer beef mixture to a bowl and mix in cheddar cheese and pickles. Let cool slightly.
- Place 2–3 tablespoons of filling on a wrapper, fold and roll tightly, sealing the edge with water.

Notes
