Crispy Cheese Rolls
Shredded akawi and mozzarella folded with parsley into spring roll wrappers, then cooked until shatteringly crisp. Deep fry, air fry, or bake them — the molten cheese center is the same either way.
Ingredients
- 2 cupsshredded akawi cheese
- 1 ½ cupsshredded mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cupchopped parsley
- ½ teaspoonblack pepper
- 1 cupwarm water
- 1 tablespoonall purpose flour
- 25spring roll pastry wrappers · square, 8-inch
Steps
- 1
Combine the akawi cheese, mozzarella cheese, parsley and black pepper in a large bowl.
- 2
Combine the warm water and all-purpose flour in a small bowl until a paste forms.
- 3
Arrange the spring roll wrappers on a dry cutting board or other working surface, and position them at an angle so that the corner of each wrapper is closest to you.
- 4
Place 2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture in the lower third of each spring roll wrapper. Beginning at the bottom angle closest to you, fold the bottom and then the sides over.
- 5
Use your fingers or a pastry brush to dab a little of the water flour paste mixture on the triangle unfolded part and then continue to roll, folding the edges inward along the way. Press lightly to seal the edges together.
- 6
Place the stuffed spring rolls seam side down on the prepared baking dish and repeat with the remaining wrappers until complete. Freeze for 30 minutes.
- 7
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Brush the spring rolls lightly with olive oil or coat them with cooking spray.
- 8
Bake in the preheated oven until they are golden brown and crisped on the outside, about 15-20 minutes.
Creator's notes
The creator cooks these three ways — deep fried, air fried, and baked (her least favorite). She says most people can't tell the difference between deep fried and air fried.
