Ingredients
- 2 ripe avocados diced
- 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes chopped
- 1/4 cup red onion finely chopped
- 1/2 cup Monterey Jack cheese shredded
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 egg roll wrappers
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro chopped
- Vegetable oil for frying
- 1/4 cup cream cheese optional for extra creaminess
Instructions
Prepare the Filling
- In a large bowl, combine diced avocado, sun-dried tomatoes, red onion, cheese, cilantro, salt and pepper.
Mix Cream Cheese (Optional)
- If using, add cream cheese to the filling. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Place Filling on Wrapper
- Lay one egg roll wrapper flat. Place about 2 tablespoons of filling in the center.
Fold the Egg Roll
- Fold the bottom corner over the filling. Fold sides in, then roll tightly to seal.
Seal the Wrapper
- Use a little water on the top corner to seal completely. Repeat with remaining wrappers and filling.
Heat Oil
- Pour vegetable oil into a frying pan. Heat over medium until hot but not smoking.
Fry the Egg Rolls
- Place egg rolls in hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 2–3 minutes per side.
Drain on Paper Towels
- Remove cooked egg rolls with tongs. Place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve Warm
- Serve immediately with dipping sauces like spicy ranch or chipotle mayo. Enjoy while crispy.
Notes
- Use ripe but firm avocados to avoid mushy filling.
- Don’t overfill the wrappers; it may cause splitting.
- Fry in small batches for even cooking.
- Serve immediately for best crunch.
- You can bake at 400°F for 12–15 minutes for a healthier version.
