Description
Voodoo Egg Rolls are a flavorful appetizer filled with shrimp, crab, and sausage, perfect for gatherings or weeknight dinners.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup of chopped shrimp
- 1 cup of crab meat
- 1/2 cup of cooked sausage (crumbled)
- 1/2 cup of cream cheese
- 1/4 cup of chopped green onions
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon of Cajun seasoning
- Egg roll wrappers
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- Mix the filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped shrimp, crab meat, crumbled sausage, cream cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, and Cajun seasoning. Stir until all ingredients are well combined and coated.
- Roll the egg rolls: Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean, flat surface, with a corner pointing towards you. Place about 2 tablespoons of the seafood filling in the center of the wrapper. Fold the sides over the filling, and then roll it tightly from the bottom to the top. Use a little water to seal the edges securely.
- Heat the oil: In a deep fryer or large pot, heat oil to 350°F (175°C). Ensure you have enough oil to fully submerge the egg rolls for even cooking.
- Fry the egg rolls: Carefully place the egg rolls in the hot oil, frying them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until they are golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Drain and serve: Using a slotted spoon, remove the egg rolls from the oil and let them drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil. Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
For a vegetarian option, substitute seafood with diced vegetables and tofu. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
