Moroccan Potato Spring Rolls

This spring roll recipe is easy to make, deliciously seasoned and infused with Moroccan spices. It makes a great appetizer or a side dish. Usually, tuna is added to the mixture, but since I am not a big fan, I just used potatoes.


What You Need:

2 medium potatoes, diced
3 cloves garlic crushed
2 Tbsp shredded cheese
1/4 cup freshly chopped parsley
1 tsp hot chilli sauce (optional)
salt & pepper to taste
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp butter
Egg wash (1 egg mixed with 1 Tbsp water)
Spring Roll pastry
Oil for Frying

What To Do:
  1. Boil the potatoes in salted water for 20 min. Drain.
  2. In a big bowl, add the potatoes, cheese, garlic, parsley, butter, hot chilli sauce, and the rest of the spices. Mash and mix well until all ingredients are incorporated.
  3. Gently pull out each spring roll sheet from the package, lay it flat on a cutting board. Spoon some of the potatoes mixture and put on 1/3 of the spring roll.
  4. Fold both sides of the wrapper to the center. Roll tight and seal the end with egg wash. Click here for how to roll the pastry.
  5. Heat oil in a large skillet, deep fry the spring rolls until olden brown. Drain on a paper towel and serve on a bed of lettuce.
  6. You can bake the rolls instead. Brush them with melted butter and bake them in a 400 degrees oven for about 10 min or until golden brown.
Enjoy!
