- 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Once turkey is cooked through remove from heat and allow to cool for a few minutes. Then stir in cheese.
Preheat oven or air fryer to 400 °F
Place egg roll wrapper so it looks like a diamond with a point at top.Place ¼ cup of mixture in the center of an egg roll wrapper. Fold the bottom point up over meat, then fold the two sides towards the middle (creating an envelope), and then roll up. Brush water on the seam to "glue" together.*See photos in post For oven method, place rolls on a prepped baking sheet and brush or spray tops with a little oil.For air fryer, place rolls in air fryer basket and brush or spray with oil. Bake in oven 20 minutes or air fry for 8 minutes.
Tips:
- Be sure to allow meat mixture to cool a bit before assembly to avoid the wrapper getting soggy from steam.
- It is important not to over stuff the egg rolls as they could tear or burst open during baking or air frying.
- For extra crunch don't overcrowd the egg rolls - overcrowding promotes steam.
