Instructions

Prepare the filling: Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, stirring often, until only a few pink pieces remain, about 4 minutes. Add the cole slaw mix, green onions, garlic, and ginger. Cook, stirring often, until the cabbage is tender, about 2 minutes. Stir in the soy sauce and sesame oil.
Assemble the egg rolls: Working one wrapper at a time, position it so it makes a diamond shape on your work surface. Lightly dab the top corner with water. Spoon 3 to 4 tablespoons of pork mixture in the center of the wrapper. Fold the bottom corner up over the filling. Fold the two side corners towards each other over the filling, then roll up to the top corner and gently press to seal.
Prepare for air frying: Place the egg rolls in the air fryer basket, and spray lightly with cooking spray or brush with more olive oil.
Air fry the egg rolls: Air fry, in batches, at 350°F, flipping after 7 minutes, until golden brown and crispy, about 12 minutes total. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

Don’t overfill the egg rolls to prevent tearing and leaking.
Lightly brush or spray the egg rolls with oil before air frying for even browning.
Cook in batches to avoid overcrowding in the air fryer.
Shake the basket or turn the egg rolls halfway through cooking for even crispiness.
Adjust cooking time based on your air fryer model and egg roll size.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
