Avocado Bacon Egg Rolls recipe
Description
This Avocado Bacon Egg Rolls recipe starts by slicing avocado and seasoning it with lime juice and salt to retain freshness and add brightness. Egg roll wrappers are filled with layers of pepper jack cheese, avocado slices, and cooked bacon broken in half.
The wrappers are tightly rolled and sealed with water to prevent leaks. The egg rolls are fried in about two inches of medium-heated oil, turning once to brown evenly on all sides. The result is a crunchy exterior encasing creamy avocado, melted spicy cheese, and smoky bacon.
Draining on paper after frying helps keep them crisp. These egg rolls offer a rich texture and balance of flavors with minimal ingredients and straightforward preparation.
Ingredients
- 4 avocado
- lime juice
- salt
- 6-7 lices pepper jack cheese
- 8-10 lices Bacon cooked
- 8-10 egg roll wrappers
- water
Instructions
- In a large frying pan, heat about 2" of oil on medium heat
- Slice avocados and drizzle with lime. Sprinkle with salt as desired.
- Place one egg roll wrapper on your work surface. Lay ½ of a slice of cheese in the middle. Lay 1 slice of avocado on top of cheese, and then one strip of bacon, broken in half. Finish with another slice of avocado.
- Fold the part of the wrapper pointing towards you over the stack of avocado and bacon. Fold the left and right corners over the middle and roll up egg roll nearly all the way. Be sure to fold tightly with no openings for ingredients to fall or leak out. With finger tip, dab a bit of water on the remaining corner at the top and then seal this corner onto the egg roll to close it.
- Repeat steps until all of your ingredients and wrappers have been used. Carefully place a few egg rolls into your hot oil and cook, turning them over once until golden brown on each side. Remove from oil and allow to drain and cool on a plate lined with paper towels. Serve whole or cut in half at an angle
