Why You’ll Love This Voodoo Egg Rolls Recipe

Voodoo Egg Rolls are everything you want in a party snack: spicy, creamy, crunchy, and totally craveable. The filling is hearty and bursting with Cajun spice, while the dipping sauce balances heat with tang and sweetness. They’re easy to make, freezer-friendly, and guaranteed to get people talking.

What Kind of Sausage Should I Use?

Andouille sausage is the star here, offering a smoky, spiced profile that fits perfectly with the Cajun theme. But if you can’t find it, feel free to swap in smoked sausage, chorizo, or even hot Italian sausage for a different kind of heat. Just make sure it’s cooked before it goes into the wrapper.

Ingredients for the Voodoo Egg Rolls

This recipe comes together with just a handful of bold, flavorful ingredients. Each one plays a role in building layers of taste and texture.

Egg Roll Wrappers: These are your golden, crispy vessel. Don’t substitute with spring roll wrappers—they’re too delicate.
Andouille Sausage: This brings the signature Cajun flavor and a hint of smoke.
Cream Cheese: Creamy and rich, it holds the filling together and smooths out the heat.
Bell Peppers: Adds crunch, sweetness, and color.
Red Onion: Slightly sweet and sharp, they balance the richness.
Shredded Cheese: A gooey factor that melts into the filling—cheddar or a Mexican blend works beautifully.
Garlic Powder & Cajun Seasoning: Essential spices that round out the bold flavor.
Oil for Frying: A neutral oil like vegetable or canola gets the crispiest finish.

How To Make the Voodoo Egg Rolls

Step 1: Make the Filling

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the diced sausage until browned. Add chopped bell peppers and red onions and sauté until softened. Turn off the heat and stir in cream cheese, shredded cheese, and seasoning. Mix until everything is melted and combined.

Step 2: Roll the Egg Rolls

Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface, one corner pointing toward you. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of filling into the center. Fold the bottom corner up over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly. Use a dab of water to seal the top corner.

Step 3: Fry Until Golden

Heat oil in a deep pan to 350°F. Fry the egg rolls in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes each. Drain on paper towels.

Step 4: Make the Voodoo Sauce

Mix mayo, sweet chili sauce, a dash of hot sauce, garlic powder, and a splash of pickle juice in a small bowl. Adjust heat to taste.

Step 5: Serve

Serve hot with Voodoo sauce on the side for dipping or drizzle it right over the top.

How to Serve and Store Voodoo Egg Rolls

These egg rolls are best served hot and crispy, straight from the fryer. But they also reheat beautifully in the oven or air fryer. This recipe makes about 12 egg rolls, which feeds 4 to 6 people depending on your appetite.

To store leftovers, place cooled egg rolls in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a 375°F oven or air fryer for about 6-8 minutes. You can also freeze them before or after frying—just add a couple of minutes to your reheat time if frozen.
