It's Mother's Day!! And my dish to make during this occasion was Avocado egg rolls. It was so easy to make. You can google the recipe, but I changed mine just a little bit since my fam bam doesn't like things that are too sweet. Plus, I think my way is healthier. haha!
Dipping Sauce
9 tsp white vinegar
3 tsp balsamic vinegar
1 1/2 cup agave nectar
a good pinch of saffron
1 bunch of cilantro
6 garlic cloves
6 green onions
3 tbsp sugar
3 tsp ground black pepper
3 tsp cumin
Egg Rolls
5 avocados
1 jar of sundried tomatoes packed in oil
1/2 red onion, minced
2 1/2 tsp minced cilantro
egg roll wraps
egg
olive oil for frying
Directions
1. Wash and dry the cilantro. Put it into the food processor and pulse until minced. Save 2 1/2 tsp of it for the egg rolls.
2. In a separate bowl, mix the vinegars, agave nectar, and saffron. Microwave on high for 2 minutes.
3. Pour the vinegar mixture into the food processor which the cilantro. Add garlic cloves, green onions, sugar, black pepper, and cumin and process.
4. Cube the avocados. Chop the sundried tomatoes so they are small and bite size.
5. Mix the avocados, sundried tomatoes, minced red onion, and cilantro.
6. Place a tbsp of the avocado mixture onto an egg roll wrapper.
7. Wrap according to the directions on the wrapper.
8. Fry in hot olive oil for about 2-3 minutes.
This dish was a huge hit. And it was so easy to make. The sauce was a lot so don't try to make any more than that. As for the serving size...I used up all the egg roll wrappers, save two. We were feeding a party of 11 people and I had leftovers, BUT there was so much other food...so...yea...
But definitely, it was so good. I know I will make it again. Which is why I wrote this post, so I can refer to it next time. =)
