Ingredients (serves 4):
- 1 lb. ground beef
- 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup corn kernels
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tbsp. chili powder
- 1 tsp. cumin
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 8 egg roll wrappers
- Oil, for frying
Cooking tips:
- Make sure to drain and rinse the black beans before using them in the recipe.
- Use a non-stick pan to cook the ground beef to prevent sticking and burning.
- Don't overfill the egg roll wrappers, or they may burst during frying.
Instructions:
1. In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat.
2. Add the black beans, corn, cheddar cheese, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the mixture is heated through.
3. Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface, with one corner facing you. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the beef and bean mixture onto the center of the wrapper.
4. Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper up over the filling, then fold the sides in towards the center. Roll the wrapper up tightly, sealing the edges with a bit of water.
5. Repeat with the remaining egg roll wrappers and filling.
6. Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F. Fry the egg rolls in batches for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.
7. Serve the Tex-Mex style beef and bean egg rolls hot, with your favorite dipping sauce.
