Ingredients
- 1 cup bok choy, finely chopped
- 1 medium carrot, grated
- 1/4 onion, finely chopped
- 2 egg roll wrappers
- Cooking spray or a small amount of olive oil (optional for brushing)
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped bok choy, grated carrot, and finely chopped onion. Mix well to ensure the vegetables are evenly distributed.
- Fill the Wrappers: Lay one egg roll wrapper flat on a clean surface. Place about 2 tablespoons of the vegetable mixture in the center of the wrapper. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold the sides inward, and roll up tightly to seal. Repeat with the second wrapper.
- Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Air Fry the Egg Rolls: Lightly spray the egg rolls with cooking spray or brush them with a small amount of olive oil if desired. Place the egg rolls in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Serve: Once cooked, remove the egg rolls from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them as they are or with a low-sugar dipping sauce.
