Ingredients
Scale
Egg Rolls
- 8 pieces egg roll wrappers
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 0.5 cup cream cheese, softened
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- vegetable oil (enough for frying)
For Serving (Optional)
- powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preparation: In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth to create a creamy filling base.
- Prepare Blueberry Mixture: In another bowl, combine blueberries, lemon juice, and cornstarch gently to coat the fruit and thicken the filling slightly.
- Assemble Egg Rolls: Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface with a corner pointing toward you. Place about one tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center, then add a spoonful of the blueberry mixture on top.
- Roll Egg Rolls: Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in both sides tightly and roll upward, sealing the top corner with a dab of water to secure.
- Heat Oil: Pour vegetable oil into a skillet about 1 inch deep and heat over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C) for optimal frying.
- Fry Egg Rolls: Carefully place egg rolls in the hot oil in batches. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crisp.
- Drain and Serve: Remove the fried egg rolls and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil. Dust with powdered sugar if desired and serve warm.
Notes
- Room temperature cream cheese blends easier and creates a smoother filling.
- Frozen blueberries can be used but thaw and drain excess liquid to avoid soggy wrappers.
- Use fresh lemon juice for the best flavor enhancement.
- Maintain oil temperature for perfect crispiness and to avoid greasy rolls.
- Egg roll wrappers should be handled gently to avoid tearing during assembly.
- Powdered sugar is optional but adds a nice touch of sweetness and decoration.
