How to make black bean egg roll
To make black bean egg rolls, you will need the following ingredients:
- Egg roll wrappers
- 1 can of black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup of cooked rice
- 1 cup of chopped vegetables (such as bell peppers, carrots, and cabbage)
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon of soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon of ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Vegetable oil for frying
Here's the step-by-step process to make black bean egg rolls:
1. In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
2. Add the chopped vegetables to the skillet and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
3. Stir in the black beans, cooked rice, soy sauce, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to let the flavors mingle. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
4. Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface, with one corner facing you. Spoon about 2-3 tablespoons of the black bean filling onto the center of the wrapper.
5. Fold the corner closest to you over the filling, tucking it tightly. Fold the sides inwards and continue rolling until you have a tight egg roll. Use a dab of water to seal the remaining corner.
6. Repeat the process with the remaining egg roll wrappers and filling.
7. Heat vegetable oil in a large frying pan or deep fryer. The oil should be deep enough to submerge the egg rolls.
8. Carefully place the egg rolls in the hot oil and fry for about 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally, until they turn golden brown and crispy.
9. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cooked egg rolls onto a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
10. Serve the black bean egg rolls hot as an appetizer or snack. You can dip them in your favorite sauce, such as sweet and sour sauce or spicy mayo.

- Place a spoonful of the black bean filling onto the center of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling.
- Fold the left and right corners towards the center, creating an envelope shape.
- Roll up the egg roll, tucking in the filling tightly, until you reach the top corner. Dab a little water on the top corner to seal the wrapper.

- Fry each side for a couple of minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the egg rolls using a slotted spoon or tongs and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Step 6: Serve and enjoy!
