Chop and add white onions, green onions, and cilantro to the meat as it cooks.

Once cooked, chop the meat into smaller pieces.

Prepare the eggroll wrappers by laying them out.

Melt the mozzarella cheese before filling the eggrolls.

Place a sheet of eggroll wrapper on a clean surface, add a thick piece of cheese and a spoonful of the hot meat mixture in the center.

Wet the edges of the wrapper with water to help seal it.

Fold the bottom corner over the filling, fold in the sides, and roll tightly to seal.

Repeat the process until all eggrolls are filled and rolled.

Heat oil in a deep fryer until hot.

Carefully place the eggrolls in the hot oil, folded side down first.

Fry the eggrolls for 3 minutes on one side, then flip and fry for another 2 minutes until golden brown.

Remove the eggrolls and place them on a rack to cool before serving.

Garnish with cilantro and onions, and serve with lime.
