Pour oil to a depth of 1/2-inch in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high until a thermometer reads 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), about 8 minutes. Add 3 to 4 eggrolls into hot oil, seam side down, and cook, until golden brown and crispy all over, 3 to 4 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain.
