Ingredients
• 8 egg roll wrappers
• 6 oz goat cheese, softened
• 2 fresh jalapeños, finely diced (remove seeds for less heat)
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon onion powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• 1 egg (for egg wash)
• 1 cup vegetable oil (for frying)
• Optional: honey or balsamic glaze for drizzling
Instructions
1. Prepare Filling: In a bowl, mix goat cheese, diced jalapeños, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
2. Assemble Wraps: Lay out an egg roll wrapper on a clean surface. Place a tablespoon of the goat cheese mixture in the center.
3. Seal Edges: Lightly brush the edges of the wrapper with beaten egg. Fold the wrapper over the filling, rolling tightly and sealing the edges. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
4. Heat Oil: In a deep skillet, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
5. Fry Until Golden: Fry each wrapped bite for about 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
6. Serve & Garnish: Serve warm, optionally drizzled with honey or balsamic glaze for extra flavor.
Notes
• Adjust jalapeño quantity based on your spice preference.
• Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 12-15 minutes if you prefer a healthier, non-fried option.
• Serve with a dipping sauce like sweet chili sauce, ranch, or balsamic reduction.
