Bang Bang Shrimp Egg Rolls Recipe

Not only are these egg rolls simple to make, they are incredibly delicious. I will warn you now… the bang bang dipping sauce is highly addictive!

If you like the combination of sweet heat these are the perfect appetizer for you. The bang bang dipping sauce is added inside the egg rolls and also used as a dipping sauce. It is a mix of sriracha, mayonnaise, rice vinegar and sugar. The spice can be adjusted to taste simply add more or less sriracha.

What is in Bang Bang Shrimp Egg Rolls?

ingredients to make bang bang shrimp egg rolls
  • The secret to bang bang shrimp is the special sauce which is a sweet and spicy mix of sriracha, mayonnaise, sugar and rice vinegar. Sliced purple cabbage, green cabbage, carrot and green onion (or coleslaw or cabbage mix) is part of the filling of these delicious egg roll. Egg roll wrappers can be found in the refrigerator section of most grocery stores (sold next to the refrigerated salad dressings and tofu).
  • My favorite way to cook egg rolls is in my Air Fryer. The egg rolls turn out just as crispy as if they were deep fried but without all of the added oil. In the full recipe below I also include cooking instructions for oven baked and deep fried

I love air frying my egg rolls, they are just as crispy and delicious as deep fried but without all the added oil!

My favorite Air Fryers that I highly recommend:

Cosori 5.8 Qt Air Fryer

USA and All Other Countries Link

I have had my Cosori 5.8 Qt for 3 years and love it! I cook for a family of 5 with this basket style air fryer. This has an XL basket that is square (not round like most air fryers) so it has a large capacity which is great for 3-5 people.

Instant Vortex Pro

I have had my Instant Vortex Pro for 2 years and love it! This is a tray style air fryer has 2 trays and has a rotating basket (great for fries) and rotisserie. The rotisserie feature is amazing, you can cook a whole chicken! With 2 trays this air fryer is good for 3-6 people.
