### Instructions
1. **Cook the filling:**
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions and peppers; sauté until soft. Add steak, season with salt and pepper, and cook until just browned (or warm through if using deli meat). Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
2. **Assemble the egg rolls:**
Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface. Add a spoonful of the beef mixture and a piece or sprinkle of cheese. Roll tightly, folding in the sides as you go, and seal the edge with a dab of water.
3. **Fry until crispy:**
Heat oil in a deep skillet or fryer to 350°F (175°C). Fry egg rolls in batches for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
4. **Serve hot:**
Serve with a side of cheese sauce, ranch, or spicy mayo for dipping.

### Tips for Success
* **Slice ingredients thinly** so they cook evenly and roll easily.
* **Use provolone or white American cheese** for that authentic Philly flavor.
* **Seal wrappers well** to prevent filling from leaking during frying.
* **Freeze before frying** for easy make-ahead snacks — just add an extra minute or two to the cook time.
