A Korean Egg Roll made with just ground beef, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger. Sweet and gingery with a soft center, these beef egg rolls are a-mazing! The perfect party food!
Korean Ground Beef Egg Rolls weren’t initially on my rundown of plans to make. Why you inquire? Since I’d never known about them. What I had known about, and made previously, was Korean Ground Beef which is one of our #1 alternate way dinners to make with ground hamburger. So when I had about a cup of it left finished and about six egg move coverings I had one of those animation light minutes.
Good gracious, yes. So often yes. They were so natural to make thus great I utilized my second pack of ground meat I expected to make lasagna with to make a gigantic group of these Korean egg rolls. I sent my better half (with the two children close by… he is a holy person!) to the store to purchase two additional packs of egg move coverings and pretty much an hour later I had wrapped and set to freeze 48 extra hamburger egg rolls.
The best part is these Korean hamburger egg rolls are unique. They aren’t ordinary spring rolls or egg rolls. They are sweet and gingery and have a delicate focus with the carrots. There’s a trace of the slaw I regularly make with Korean Ground Beef since I scooped the filling onto a little piece of napa cabbage to help keep the fluid from drenching through the egg move coverings. I even added some matchstick carrot adheres to the dish I removed the hamburger from. I cooked them for a couple of moments to mellow them and added them to my recently prepared Korean egg roll.
My Korean egg move contort has authoritatively been named “Second best egg rolls EVER” which is a quite enormous commendation to them since I don’t have a clue what could thump Cheesesteak Egg Rolls off the best position for my significant other. You can undoubtedly make these Korean egg moves with your preferred ground meat, I will in general serve them with a light plate of mixed greens with Miso dressing dependent on my #1 Costco Asian Salad Kit and velvety miso dressing.
