I had these rolls for the first time in 'Cheesecake Factory' and have become a huge fan of them since....I tried recreating them at home and they turned out to be good :) Here's the recipe...
Ingredients:
- Avocados - 4
- Store bought egg roll wraps / spring roll wraps
- Green chillis - 2-3(depends on your taste) minced
- Onion - 1/2 an onion-finely chopped
- Cilantro - a few sprigs finely chopped
- Sun dried tomatoes - 2-3 wedges diced
- Salt - to taste
- Pepper - to taste
- Oil - for deep frying
Directions:
- Dice the avocados and place the diced avocados in a mixing bowl.
- To this,add the diced tomatoes, minced chillis,chopped onions,cilantro,salt and pepper and mix well. Mash the avocado with the back of a spoon,but make sure that it still remains a little chunky.
- Place a tablespoon full of this mixture in the center of the wrap & fold it into the shape of a spring roll. You can find the directions on the cover of the wraps itself. :)
- Heat oil in a pan and once the oil is hot, drop in the rolls and fry till they turn golden brown.
- Serve hot with a sweet and sour cilantro+cashew sauce.
Ingredients for the cilantro+cashew dipping sauce:
- Cilantro - 1.5 cups
- Cashew - 1/2 cup
- Coriander powder - 1 tsp
- Cumin powder - 1 tsp
- Tamarind pulp - 1 tsp
- Balsamic vinaigrette - 2 tbsp ( this has the vinegar,olive oil and the herbs,so I did not have to add the ingredients separately. :P)
- Garlic - 1 pod
- Salt - to taste
Directions:
- Grind all the ingredients together into a coarse paste and voila you have your dipping sauce ready!
