Spanakopita Eggrolls
- 3 cups rough-chopped fresh spinach
- 1 cup small-diced yellow onion
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 8 wrappers, spring roll or pastry
- Cornstarch and water, mixed to a paste
- Tzatziki sauce, aioli or other sauce, for serving
- Preheat a deep fryer to 350 degrees F.
- In a bowl, blend the spinach, onions, feta cheese, dill, salt and pepper, mixing well and crumbling the feta during the process.
- To build the rolls, in the center portion of each wrapper, add a tablespoon of filling.
- Then trace the cornstarch paste around the edges of the wrapper.
- To seal, fold the bottom tip over the filling, and then bring the left and right sides into the center.
- To finish, simply roll to bring the top until the roll is closed.
- Drop the spanakopita rolls into the fryer.
- Lower them slowly into the oil so they set.
- Once crisp, after about 2 minutes, remove from the fryer.
- Remember they will continue to cook two shades darker.
- Put on paper towels to absorb the grease.
- Season the eggrolls and serve with tzatziki sauce, aioli or other sauce.
