Birria Eggrolls (Easy Airfryer Meal Idea)

What You’ll Need:

  • 1 lb cooked beef birria (or Trader Joe’s frozen birria)

  • 1/2 cup consume (from birria)

  • 1 red onion, finely chopped

  • cilantro, finely chopped

  • shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 12-16 egg roll wrappers

  • 2 tbsp cornstarch

  • 4 tbsp water

  • Olive oil (for brushing)

Instructions:

1. Prep the Ingredients:

-Clean and chop cilantro and red onion into small pieces. Set aside.

-Prepare birria or follow package instructions on TJ’s frozen beef birria. Shred the beef with a fork or your hands.

-Save consume for dipping later.

2. Make Cornstarch Slurry:

- In a small bowl, mix 2 tbsp cornstarch with 4 tbsp water until smooth. This will help seal the egg rolls.

3. Assemble the Egg Rolls:

-Lay out an egg roll wrapper (use two wrappers for extra sturdiness).

-Lightly brush the edges of the wrapper with the cornstarch slurry.

-Add a few scoops of shredded birria to the center.

-Sprinkle chopped red onion, cilantro, and shredded mozzarella on top.

-Roll tightly, folding in the sides as you go to create a sealed egg roll.

4. Air Fry the Egg Rolls:

-Preheat the air fryer to 375-400°F.

-Brush each egg roll lightly with olive oil on both sides.

-Place them in the air fryer in a single layer.

-Air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

5. Serve & Enjoy:

- Let the egg rolls cool slightly before serving.

-Serve with warm saved consume for dipping (add extra red onions and cilantro).

Enjoy your crispy, cheesy birria egg rolls!
