Avocado Eggrolls
November 18th, 2006 by hungrybastard
After having avocado egg rolls at the Cheesecake factory I had been searching for a good recipe to duplicate this outstanding dish. This one comes pretty damn close. These are super rich and super good. It’s not so much about the egg rolls mind you but the sauce. Pictured here with stir fried beef and rice noodles.
Ingredients:
Egg Rolls:
- 1 large avocado, peeled, pitted, & diced
- 2 tablespoons sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, chopped
- 1 tablespoon minced red onions
- 1 teaspoon fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 pinch salt
- 3 egg roll wraps
- 1 egg, beaten
Directions:
- Prepare dipping sauce and refrigerate
- Gently stir together avocado, tomatoes, onion, 1/2 teaspoon cilantro, and salt.
- Distribute filling evenly onto center of each egg roll wrapper.
- Position a wrapper so that a corner is pointing toward you; fold the bottom corner up, 1/4 of the way over the filling.
- Brush remaining corners and edges of the wrapper with egg, roll up from side to side, fold top corner over all and press to seal.
- Repeat with remaining wrappers.
- Continue by deep-frying the egg rolls in 375 degree oil for 3-4 minutes, until golden brown.
- Drain on brown paper bags.
- Slice egg rolls diagonally across middle and serve with prepared dipping sauce.
