Ingredients

Scale

For the filling:

  • 1/2 pound (225 g) lump crab meat (picked over for shells)
  • 1/4 cup (60 g) mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning (or seafood seasoning)
  • 1/4 cup (25 g) panko breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the egg rolls:

  • 8–10 egg roll wrappers
  • 1 egg, beaten (for sealing)
  • Vegetable oil, for frying

For dipping sauce (optional):

  • Remoulade, tartar sauce, or a spicy aioli

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crab filling:
    • In a mixing bowl, combine the crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, breadcrumbs, beaten egg, green onions, and parsley.
    • Gently mix until combined. Be careful not to break up the crab meat too much. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Assemble the egg rolls:
    • Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with one corner pointing toward you (like a diamond shape).
    • Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the crab filling onto the center of the wrapper. Shape the filling into a small log.
    • Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the two side corners tightly. Roll upward to seal the egg roll, brushing the edges with beaten egg to ensure it stays closed. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
  3. Fry the egg rolls:
    • Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot over medium-high heat to 350°F (175°C).
    • Fry the egg rolls in batches, turning occasionally, for 3–4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
    • Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  4. Serve:
    • Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as remoulade or a spicy aioli.

Notes

  • For a lighter version, brush the egg rolls with oil and bake at 400°F (200°C) for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway through, or air-fry at the same temperature for 8–10 minutes.
  • You can customize the filling by adding diced bell peppers or hot sauce for extra flavor.
  • Leftovers can be reheated in an air fryer or oven to maintain crispiness.
