Egg Rolls
- 4 cups Prepared Cuban Mojo Pork (recipe linked in instructions)
- 1 lb Deli sliced Black Forest Ham
- 3 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup diced dill pickles
- 1 lb shredded Swiss cheese
- 32 egg roll wrappers
Garlic Mustard Dip
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon fresh minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
Make the filling
Crisp the ham. Add the butter to a large frying pan over medium heat and melt. Add the ham in an even layer, and fry until lightly golden- about 2-3 minutes a side. Repeat until all ham is crisped and dice into small pieces.
Add the ham to a large mixing bowl with the cooled and strained Cuban Mojo Pork.
Add diced pickles and shredded Swiss cheese and mix well.
Fill and wrap the egg rolls
Add about ¼- ½ cup of the filling to the center of each egg roll wrapper, and wrap and seal. Continue until all egg rolls are filled.
Fry the egg rolls
Fry the egg rolls in a shallow amount of oil, about 2"-4", in a large skillet or frying pan. These only take a few minutes per side on high heat. Alternatively, you could also deep fry them for about 3 minutes at 325 degrees, or air fry them as you would any other egg rolls.If deep frying or pan frying, work in batches, and set on a wire rack to drain.
