Avocado Egg Rolls

Avocado Egg Rolls with Dipping Sauce

Ingredients:

• 2 large avocados, peeled, pitted, & diced
• 4 tablespoons sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, chopped
• 2 tablespoon minced red onion
• 1 teaspoon fresh cilantro, chopped
• ¼ t. salt
• 6 egg roll wraps

Method:

Gently stir together avocado, tomatoes, onion, 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 over the filling.

Fold side corners in and roll toward the top corner. Wet the edges of the top corner with a little water. Then fold top corner over 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 paper towels.

Slice egg rolls diagonally across middle and serve with prepared dipping sauce.
