So we've been watching the Rachel vs. Guy Celebrity Chef Cookoff on Food Network every Sunday. The most surprising cooks to me have been Lou Diamond Phillips and Coolio, the self-proclaimed ghetto gourmet. Today I decided to attempt his recipe for "soul rolls". These are described as 'fried, but healthy'.
They were quite yummy! (photos below)
Soul Rolls
Ingredients
1 package spring roll wrappers1 lb. ground turkey, chicken, or beef
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 medium white onion, chopped
2 cloves minced garlic
Small pile shredded cheddar or jack cheese
1 head shredded green cabbage
Sunflower oil in a wok for frying (heated high enough that a sprinkle of water pings when dropped in)
1 dollop or so chili sauce and salsa
Directions
- Remove spring roll wrappers from the package and cover with a damp towel to keep from drying out.
- Put ground meat in a bowl and add salt, pepper, onion, and garlic.
- Combine well with chili sauce and salsa.
- Sautee meat, breaking it up as it cooks.
- Assemble rolls (don't over stuff!): Spread out one wrapper. Sprinkle cabbage on wrapper. Add a small amount of beef. Sprinkle on some cheese. Roll wrapper nice and tight and seal with a bit of water.
- Slide rolls into fryer, making sure not to overcrowd the wok.
- Keep rolls turning in the oil and cook for about 3-4 minutes.
- Remove, drain, and enjoy
