Notes

  • You can use store-bought Russian or Thousand Island dressing instead of making your own.
  • You can use pastrami instead of corned beef.
  • For Rachel egg rolls, swap the corned beef for pastrami or turkey pastrami and swap the sauerkraut for coleslaw.
  • To bake these egg rolls, place them on a lined baking sheet, brush with oil, and bake in a 400°F oven for 12-16 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  • To air fry these egg rolls, place them in the basket of an air fryer, spray them with cooking oil, and air fry them at 370°F for 10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Storage: Store Reuben egg rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
