4. 4

   Remove the beef mixture from the heat and set it aside.

8. 8

   Combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, chopped pickled jalapeño, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt in a bowl. Mix until well combined.

9. 9

   Refrigerate the cheeseburger sauce until ready to use.

10. 10

    For best results, freeze the assembled spring rolls for 10–15 minutes before frying.

Notes

The source also gives two alternatives: bake at 400°F for 12–15 minutes, or air-fry at 400°F for 15–20 minutes while lightly spraying with oil. Use high-quality spring roll sheets and avoid overfilling. The quantity of frying oil is not specified.
