Why You’ll Love These Egg Rolls

  • Sweet-heat balance: Jefferson Jellies Hot Pepper Jelly adds the perfect contrast, cutting through the richness with a little sweetness and just the right amount of spice.

Ingredients

  • Jefferson Jellies Hot Pepper Jelly

  • Vegetable oil, for frying

  • 1 (12-ounce) package boudin sausage, casings removed, crumbled

  • 2 cups shredded green cabbage

  • ¼ cup chopped green onion

  • 2 tablespoons Creole mustard

  • 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 tablespoon water

  • 15 egg roll wrappers

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil: Fill a large Dutch oven halfway with vegetable oil and heat over medium until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350°F.

  2. Make the filling: In a large bowl, stir together the boudin, cabbage, green onion, Creole mustard, and Creole seasoning. In a small bowl, whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon of water for your egg wash.

  3. Assemble the rolls:

    • Place an egg roll wrapper on your work surface with one corner pointed toward you.

    • Add about 2 tablespoons of the boudin mixture to the center and shape it into a log.

    • Brush the edges of the wrapper with egg wash.

    • Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly to seal.

    • Place seam side down and repeat with remaining wrappers.

  4. Fry until golden: Working in batches, fry the egg rolls, turning occasionally, until crisp and golden brown — about 3 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. Serve and enjoy: Serve warm with Jefferson Jellies Hot Pepper Jelly for dipping or drizzling.

Tips for the Perfect Boudin Egg Rolls

  • Crispier finish: Don’t overcrowd the pan when frying — it keeps the temperature steady and ensures even crisping.

  • Air fryer option: Brush rolls with oil and air fry at 375°F for 8–10 minutes, flipping halfway through.

  • Add more flavor: Try mixing a little pepper jelly right into the boudin filling for an extra layer of sweet heat.
