Brandon’s Egg Roll Tacos
Sep 01, 2025 10:30 AM
Egg rolls meet tacos! I love this! Easy to make and ridiculously good with a classic egg roll filling, crunchy veg, pillowy tortillas, and a spicy gochujang sauce.
Are you even ready for this? What we have here is like an egg roll filling (meat, cabbage, carrots, soy sauce, garlic, ginger) meets a fried little taco (flour tortilla, fresh veg on top, gochujang sauce for serving) and the whole thing eats a lot like a folded sandwich.
That’s going to be a big yes from me.
My friend Brandon has been telling me about these for weeks. I know the whole idea of meat smashed into tortillas is really having a moment on social media, but the concept has always seemed a little strange to me.
Until I tried these ones – and now I’m a believer.
Besides being super yummy (don’t skip the gochujang sauce it is DIVINE on there) – these are shockingly easy to make. Shallot crispies, panko breading, house sauce, etc. You can easily make this in 20 minutes without breaking a sweat.
Hope you love it! And thanks to Brandon for sharing this idea with me! YOU WERE RIGHT!
