AVOCADO EGGROLLS

Another quick and easy recipe in the book. For those who love Avocado Eggrolls, you’re welcome. I’m one of you and I always order them at Kona Grill and Cheesecake Factory. They’re crispy outside, soft and creamy inside. With simple ingredients; avocados, sweet sun-dried tomatoes, shallots, and a little bit of cilantro, this is a great snack or appetizer to get the party and conversations started.

You can fry them in an air fryer, deep fryer, or a Dutch Oven with vegetable oil. Super simple and so yummy. I like serving them with Thai sweet chili sauce. You can get it from your local Asian store or order the Thai Sweet Chili Sauce from Amazon.

Thai Sweet Chili Sauce, a.k.a. Thai ranch, as my husband calls it. I’ve never met someone who loves ranch more than him. So, when he puts it on the same level as ranch, you know it’s a pretty darn good sauce.

For the wrappers, I like to use the big wonton wrappers. It’s the same kind we use to make Crab Rangoon and other eggroll recipes. If you have a bunch of leftovers you can use them to make Shrimp Ceviche with Crispy Wontons.

Let’s cook some food!

Start with mixing avocado with shallot, sun-dried tomatoes, cilantro and a pinch of salt and pepper in a medium bowl. You can leave cilantro out if you don’t like it. A lot of my friends said it tastes like Windex. ha ha

Place a wrapper on a flat surface, points facing top and bottom like a diamond. Spoon the avocado mixture in the middle, about two tablespoons. Fold the sides in over the filling.

Gently roll it up tightly.

Wet the top edge of the wrapper with a little bit of water to seal it.

Repeat until the filling is all used up. This recipe makes 4.

Heat up vegetable oil in a large heavy bottom pot like a Dutch Oven and as I mentioned earlier, you can fry them in an air fryer or deep fryer.

If you have a thermometer, it should be about 350ºF or 175ºC. If you do not, to test if the oil is hot enough, stick a wooden spoon in the pot slowly. If the oil steadily bubbles around the stick, it’s ready for frying.

Like this. It’s ready!

Add the eggrolls.

Fry them until golden brown and crispy on all sides.

Serve hot with some Thai Sweet Chili Sauce. Enjoy!
