"It’s a classic Italian sub in egg roll form. Filled with cheese, deli meats, lettuce and pepperoncini for a bit of a kick. Served with Italian dressing for dipping to give it that perfect sub taste."

• Yields: 8 egg rolls
• Serves: 8

ingredients

• 1 quart vegetable oil (for frying)
• 8 egg roll wraps
• 1⁄4 lb sliced provolone cheese, sliced into 3/4-inch strips
• 1⁄4 lb sliced deli ham, sliced into 3/4-inch strips
• 1⁄4 lb sliced deli genoa salami, sliced into 3/4-inch strips
• 1⁄4 lb sliced deli mortadella, sliced into 3/4-inch strips
• 1⁄4 lb sliced pepperoni, sliced into 3/4-inch strips
• 1 cup drained pepperoncini pepper
• 1 1⁄2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
• 2 teaspoons dried oregano
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 1 cup Italian dressing

directions

1. Fill a pot or skillet with high sides halfway up with oil and bring to 365 degrees F.
2. Place the egg roll wrappers at an angle on a clean work surface. Lay slices of cheese and a bit of each deli meat in the center. Top with pepperoncini, lettuce and a dash of oregano.
3. Bring the corners into the center, over the filling, and roll into a tight log. Seal the edge with a bit of egg wash and place on a platter or baking sheet. Continue rolling the rest of the egg rolls in the same manner.
4. Working in batches, fry rolls until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and serve with Italian dressing on the side for dipping.
