Avocado Egg Rolls

After a long break from blogging, I am back with a yummy appetizer which I made last weekend for Super bowl party.

It is hard to resist eating just 1 item from Bj's or Cheesecake Factory appetizer menu, which is Avocado egg rolls. I always wanted to try this item at home. Finally got a chance to try it over the weekend. For sure this item is a crowd pleaser. So try this appetizer next time when you have a party.

Ingredients:
Filling:

4 Semi fruit Avocados (I like to have crunch so i used semi fruit)
1/2 onion chopped finely
1/2 cup sundried tomatoes
4-5 stem of cilantros
1-2 tspn sea salt (Adjust as per taste)
1tsp olive oil
Oil for shallow fry
Spring roll pastry sheets

Cilantro dipping sauce:

1 bunch of cilantro
1/8cup(10-15 pieces) of cashews (Optional. But this makes sauce creamy)
1/4 cup agave/honey
1tbsp tamarind pulp
2tsp rice vinegar
1tsp balsamic vinegar
1tsp cumin powder
1/2tsp ground pepper (Adjust as per your spice)
2 green chilies(Optional)
2tsp olive oil

Procedure:

Dipping sauce:

In a food processor make a paste of cilantro and cashews.(If you like spicy add few green chilies). In a bowl add agave, tamarind pulp, rice vinegar, Balsamic vinegar, cumin powder and ground pepper mix well and heat for 2 mts in microwave. Once the mixture is cooled add coriander paste and mix well. Adjust the spices and keep it in refrigerator.

Filling:

Cut Avocados into small cubes. In a bowl add avocados, chopped onions, chopped cilantro, chopped sun dried tomatoes, olive oil and sea salt and mix well.

Wrapping Rolls:

Place your wrapper triangle shaped on the flat surface. Add 1 spoon of filling in the middle. Fold one corner of the wrapper nearest to your filling and tuck in. Now take one corner on the side and fold inward. Repeat the step for opposite side. Now roll carefully to the top corner and seal with avocado filling.

Here is the video of me rolling:




Now shallow fry in a pan or deep fry. I did shallow fry. Remove from oil and damp any excess oil with absorbent paper. cut diagonally and serve with Cilantro dipping sauce.

Crispy, Yummy Avocado rolls melts in your mouth.
