To prepare, these frozen egg rolls can be cooked in an oven or air fryer for a crispy result. For oven baking, preheat your oven and place the egg rolls on a baking sheet, turning them halfway through the cooking time until golden brown and heated through. Air frying offers a similar crispiness with a shorter cooking duration. They are best served immediately after cooking to maintain their texture.
