Avacado Egg Roll (Egg optional)

Avacado Egg Roll: (Egg optional)


Avocados are rich in monounsaturated fat, the heart-healthy kind. Yet scientists are now more interested in the active compounds in avocados that might help prevent cancer. One study found that those compounds can inhibit the growth of prostate cancer cells in the laboratory. While conducting the study, these researchers found avocados are loaded with a variety of antioxidants, including familiar disease-fighting compounds such as lutein, beta-carotene,& vitamin E.
Another benefit is that avocados help the body absorb phytochemicals from other foods. Researchers from Ohio State University reported that pairing avocados with salsa or salad allows for better absorption of antioxidants in those foods. The lycopene in tomatoes or the beta-carotene in carrots may be better absorbed if there's a slice or two of avocado in the bowl. 

Now I am going to show u the preparation of Avacado Egg Roll. Undoubtedly Avacado goes well with egg and meat.(chicken especially). Here egg is optional, Vegetarians kindly skip egg and follow the same.

  • If using Spring roll sheets keep them out of fridge to set to room temperature. Else mix maida flour , salt, oil in a bowl and make it into a soft dough. Roll them into small balls and spread them using a pin roller into a fine sheet. Cut sheet to a perfect square.
  • Now place the avacado ball in the sheet and fold it into a roll as shown below. Use flour paste to seal the edges. Roll it tightly but make sure the sheet does not get damaged. 
                                 
  • Now U need to fry the rolls in oil, beat 1 egg in a bowl and dip the roll into the egg and then to the oil. Incase of vegetarians this is optional, U can fry the rolls straight away.


  • Serve the rolls hot with your preferred dips.!!
