If you are looking for a delicious appetizer or a quick homemade snack that everyone will love, these crispy beef rolls with cheese and herbs are the perfect choice. They combine juicy seasoned ground beef, melted mozzarella cheese, and fresh herbs wrapped in a thin crispy pastry and fried until golden brown.

Ingredients

For the filling

• 500 grams high-quality ground beef
• 250 grams shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 bunch fresh parsley finely chopped
• 3 garlic cloves mashed
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• Salt to taste
• Black pepper to taste

For the rolls

• 12 egg roll wrappers or filo pastry sheets
• Vegetable oil for frying

Preparation

Step 1: Cook the Beef

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of vegetable oil. Add the mashed garlic and sauté until fragrant. Add the ground beef and cook while breaking it apart with a spatula.

Season with salt, black pepper, cumin, and smoked paprika. Continue cooking until the meat is nicely browned. Remove from heat and drain excess fat. Allow the beef to cool slightly.

Step 2: Prepare the Filling

Transfer the cooked beef to a bowl and add shredded mozzarella cheese and chopped parsley. Mix well until all ingredients are combined evenly.

Step 3: Assemble the Rolls

Place one wrapper on a flat surface and add a generous spoonful of filling near one edge. Fold the sides inward and roll tightly. Seal the edge using a little water or egg white.

Step 4: Fry the Rolls

Heat vegetable oil to 180°C (350°F). Fry the rolls in batches for about 3–4 minutes until they become golden brown and crispy.

Remove them from the oil and place them on paper towels to remove excess oil.
