  • Salt & Pepper to taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a medium bowl, mash 2 ripe avocados with a fork until creamy but still chunky. Mix in the juice of 1 lime, ¼ cup finely chopped red onion, and ¼ cup chopped cilantro. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Lay out 8 egg roll wrappers on a clean surface, spoon a portion of the avocado filling near the center of each. Fold the bottom point over the filling, tuck the sides inward and roll tightly. Seal edges with a bit of water or beaten egg.
  3. Heat 2 cups of vegetable oil to 350°F. Fry the assembled egg rolls in batches for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together ¼ cup tamarind paste, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 clove minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon grated ginger. Adjust thickness as needed with water or orange juice.
  5. Serve the crispy avocado egg rolls warm alongside the tamarind dip, garnished with lime wedges or fresh cilantro.
