Mashed potatoes are quite a change from the traditional vegetable egg roll filling. Not necessarily healthier, but definitely delicious!

Watch this video to see a variation of this recipe.

Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 2 medium onions, finely diced

  • 10 slices pastrami, finely diced

  • oil, for frying

Directions

Make the Egg Rolls

1.

In a large frying pan, sauté onions and pastrami in oil until onions are caramelized. Combine with mashed potatoes.

2.

Lay one egg roll wrapper on a work surface. Brush the edges with water. Fill with one heaping tablespoon of mashed potato mixture. Fold in two sides and roll up in opposite direction. Repeat for remaining egg roll wrappers.

3.

Heat oil in a large pot for frying. Fry egg rolls in batches until golden brown.

Notes:

Egg rolls can be prepared ahead and frozen. Defrost fully and warm in a single layer on a baking sheet at 300 degrees Fahrenheit (150 degrees Celsius) for approximately 20 minutes.

Make the Egg Rolls

Yields 50 egg rolls.

Yes, I don’t see why not just make sure to adjust the baking time 🙂

I think these are wonton wrappers that are smaller than egg roll ones. And round.

I would freeze them raw and then fry fresh before serving.

I have never felt that baking egg rolls yields a yummy dish. Frying is the way to go. Freeze raw and fry before serving.
