Ingredients
- Lump crab meat
- Mayonnaise or Greek yogurt
- Dijon mustard
- Fruit juice or vinegar (to replace Worcestershire sauce)
- Egg (beaten)
- Breadcrumbs
- Green onions
- Red bell pepper
- Fresh lemon juice
- Old Bay seasoning
- Salt and pepper
- Egg roll wrappers
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, combine lump crab meat, mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt), Dijon mustard, fruit juice (or vinegar), beaten egg, breadcrumbs, green onions, red bell pepper, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, salt, and pepper. Gently mix to avoid breaking the crab meat.
- Assemble the Egg Rolls: Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface in a diamond shape. Spoon two tablespoons of the filling onto the lower half of each wrapper. Fold the bottom corner up over the filling tightly, tuck in the sides, and roll tightly into a cylinder shape. Seal edges with water if necessary.
- Frying Time: Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Fry the egg rolls in batches until golden brown (about 3–4 minutes per side). Use tongs to flip them carefully.
- Drain and Serve: Remove fried egg rolls with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Allow to cool slightly before serving with your favorite dipping sauce.
