AVOCADO EGG ROLLS WITH SWEET CHILI SAUCE
Every time I visit the Cheesecake Factory, I always order their avocado egg rolls as an appetizer. It’s crazy good and I can’t get enough of it. I’ve also ordered their egg roll sampler, which consists of tex-mex, crispy cuban, firecracker salmon, and of course avocado egg rolls.
This recipe is my recreation of their avocado egg rolls using as few ingredients as possible; all you need are egg roll wrappers, avocados, tomato, and oil for frying. I’ve also included one of my favorite sauces to date: a red sriracha-based dipping sauce that’s both spicy and sweet with a sticky texture.

Ingredients
10 egg roll wrappers
3 avocados peeled and pitted
1 roma tomato diced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
canola oil for frying
For the sweet chili sauce:
4 tablespoons sriracha
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
Instructions
Add avocados, tomato, salt, and pepper to a mixing bowl. Mash the avocados to a chunky consistency and stir to combine the ingredients. This will become the egg roll filling.
Lay out the egg roll wrappers and a small bowl of water. Distribute the egg roll filling among the wrappers, scooping them onto the bottom third of each wrapper. Taking one wrapper at a time, use a finger to brush water along its four edges. Fold up a corner over the filling, then the sides, and then roll it up. Dab the last fold with more water to seal. Repeat for all other wrappers.
Add canola oil to a large pot until the oil is about 2 inches deep. Turn the burner to medium heat. When the oil temperature reaches 350 F, add the egg rolls in batches. Cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel to drain. Slice each egg roll diagonally.
Combine sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Mix well. Serve with sliced avocado egg rolls.
