Quick and Tempting 25-Minute Recipe for Delicious Nacho Egg Rolls
Recipe Spotlight: Nacho Egg Rolls
Nacho Egg Rolls are a delicious fusion snack that combines the flavours of classic Mexican nachos with the traditional Austrian sausage (würstel) and creative dough (rohrblätter). These bite-sized appetizers can be prepared in under 30 minutes and are perfect for parties, as they disappear quickly.
The recipe provides several substitution options, allowing you to customise the filling to your liking. Wonton wrappers can be used instead of egg roll wrappers, which are smaller and thinner. Simply reduce the filling to 1 tablespoon and fry for just 1 minute per side, resulting in perfect bite-sized appetizers.
The filling consists of cooked ground beef or chicken, shredded cheddar cheese, black beans, diced jalapenos, diced tomatoes, taco seasoning, and egg roll wrappers. To control the spice level, adjust the number of jalapenos used. For a mild flavour, start with 1 seeded jalapeño, or go wild with 3 unseeded ones.
To ensure perfect nacho egg rolls, follow these tips: blot the filling to remove excess moisture, give rolls space to breathe, seal them properly, let them rest, keep them warm, watch the oil temperature when frying, and drain well after cooking.
When it comes to dipping sauce, queso dip is a popular choice, but cool sour cream with a squeeze of lime is a personal favourite. For parties, offer 3-4 options so everyone can mix and match their favourites.
If you're counting macros, consider swapping half the beef for extra-lean turkey and using reduced-fat cheese to trim about 30 calories per roll.
Nacho Egg Rolls can be baked or fried. To bake, brush the rolls with oil and bake at 400°F for 15 minutes, flipping halfway. When frying, heat the oil to 350°F and drain well after cooking.
For longer storage, freeze the uncooked rolls on a baking sheet, then transfer to bags. They'll keep for 2 months in the freezer! No need to thaw-just add an extra minute to the frying time.
When reheating, avoid the microwave as it affects crispiness. Instead, use the oven method at 375°F for 8-10 minutes on a wire rack-flip halfway, or the air fryer method at 350°F for 4-5 minutes.
Store the nacho egg rolls in the fridge for up to 3 days in an airtight container with parchment between layers, and a dry paper towel to absorb any condensation.
