- 6 egg roll wrappers

- 1/2 red bell pepper (diced)
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 tsp Old Bay seasoning

Instructions
- Prepare Filling: In a bowl, mix crab meat, green onions, red bell pepper, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and Old Bay seasoning until well combined.
- Assemble Egg Rolls: Lay an egg roll wrapper diagonally on a surface. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of filling into the center. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the sides snugly. Roll tightly away from you to seal.
- Heat Oil: In a deep pan, heat canola oil over medium heat to about 350°F (175°C).
- Fry Egg Rolls: Carefully add egg rolls to the hot oil in batches and fry for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
- Drain and Serve: Remove from oil and place on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
