To make Jamaican beef and egg rolls, you'll need the following ingredients:
- 1 lb. ground beef
- 6 eggs
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 1/4 cup chopped green pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped red pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- 1 tsp. onion powder
- 1 tsp. dried thyme
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. black pepper
- 12 egg roll wrappers
- Vegetable oil, for frying
To begin, brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain any excess fat, then add the chopped onion, green pepper, and red pepper to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and stir in the breadcrumbs, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Add the egg mixture to the skillet with the beef and vegetables, and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the eggs are cooked through.
To assemble the egg rolls, place an egg roll wrapper on a clean work surface with one corner facing you. Spoon a generous amount of the beef and egg mixture onto the wrapper, then fold the bottom corner up over the filling. Fold the sides in, then roll the wrapper up tightly to enclose the filling. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or deep fryer to 375 degrees F. Carefully add the egg rolls to the hot oil, a few at a time, and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve hot, with your favorite dipping sauce.
Jamaican beef and egg rolls are a perfect appetizer for any occasion, from game day parties to family dinners. The combination of savory beef and creamy eggs, wrapped up in a crispy shell, is sure to please even the pickiest eaters. So why not give this delicious fusion of flavors a try today?
