Shrimp and Cheese Eggrolls |
|
|
Traditional egg rolls are tasty because they are deep fried. The fillings tend to be boring, the only flavor coming from the oil they’ve been deep fried in. The flavor of these eggrolls is delicious, from the variety of sautéed vegetables, shrimp, tomato sauce and cheese. No reason to deep fry.
2 tsp vegetable oil
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 1/2 tsp finely chopped garlic
1/2 cup diced carrots
1/2 cup diced green bell pepper
6 oz medium shrimp, peeled, deveined and finely chopped
1 cup tomato sauce or store-bought spaghetti sauce
3/4 cup shredded havarti (about 2 oz)
2 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
10 large eggroll wrappers (5 1/2 inches in diameter) |
|
- Preheat the oven to 425°f. Lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
- In a nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Sauté the onions and garlic for 3 minutes.Add the carrots and pepper, and sauté over medium heat for 4 minutes. Add the shrimp and sauté for 2 minutes, or until the shrimp just turns pink. Remove from the heat. Stir in the tomato sauce and havarti and Parmesan cheeses.
- Put 1 wrapper on a work surface with 1 corner pointing toward you. Keep the rest of wrappers covered with a cloth to prevent them from drying out. Put 2 Tbsp of the filling in the center of the wrapper. Fold the lower corner up over the filling, fold in the 2 sides and roll the bundle away from you. Arrange onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining wrappers.
- Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, or until golden, turning the rolls halfway through the baking time.
