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

Beef Wontonaschen Can I use puff pastry and bake instead of frying with wonton wrappers? I really dont like working with wonton/egg roll wrappers
Yes, I don’t see why not just make sure to adjust the baking time 🙂
Mashed potato egg rolls hamentasch style In the shortcuts video you show this recipe using a round dough. Is this an egg roll dough? Is egg roll dough sold ready in round slices?
I think these are wonton wrappers that are smaller than egg roll ones. And round.
mushed potatoes egg rolls hi i wan make it for first night Rosh hashona serving as first cores ,can i freeze them?
I would freeze them raw and then fry fresh before serving.

Freezing;Cooking Can I freeze it before or after frying and is there any way that I can bake the egg rolls instead of frying?
Thanks
I have never felt that baking egg rolls yields a yummy dish. Frying is the way to go. Freeze raw and fry before serving.
