Main Ingredients
- 2 ripe avocados, peeled, pitted, and diced
- 1 cup finely shredded cabbage
- 8 egg roll wrappers
- Vegetable oil, for frying (about 2 cups)
- Prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, gently combine the diced avocado and shredded cabbage to create the filling mixture. Be careful not to mash the avocado too much to maintain some texture.
- Assemble the egg rolls: Lay one egg roll wrapper on a clean surface in diamond shape. Place about 2 tablespoons of the avocado-cabbage filling near the bottom corner of the wrapper. Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold the sides inward and roll tightly toward the top corner, sealing the edge with a little water to secure the roll.
- Heat the oil: In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat to 350°F (175°C). Use enough oil to submerge the rolls partially for even frying.
- Fry the egg rolls: Carefully place the prepared egg rolls into the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary. Cook until the wrappers are golden brown and crispy, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Use tongs to turn the rolls for even cooking.
- Drain and serve: Remove the egg rolls from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm with a dipping sauce of your choice such as sweet chili sauce or soy sauce.
Notes
- For extra flavor, consider adding finely chopped green onions or a pinch of garlic powder to the filling.
- Make sure the oil is hot enough before frying to avoid soggy rolls.
- Wrap the egg rolls tightly to prevent the filling from leaking out during frying.
- These egg rolls are best consumed immediately while crispy.
