Equipment
- Mixing Bowl
- baking sheet
- Parchment paper or oil for greasing
- Small bowl for flour paste
- Brush for oil or butter
- Oven
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups Shredded akawi cheese
- 1 1/2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup Chopped parsley
- 1/2 tsp Black pepper
- 1 cup Warm water
- 1 tbsp All-purpose flour
- 20 Spring roll pastry wrappers, 8-inch square
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with oil.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded akawi cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, chopped parsley, and black pepper. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
- In a small bowl, mix the warm water and all-purpose flour until the flour is completely dissolved to create a paste. This will be used to seal the spring roll wrappers.
- Take one spring roll pastry wrapper and lay it flat on a clean surface with one corner facing you (forming a diamond shape).
- Place about 2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture in the center of the wrapper, forming a log shape.
- Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly towards the opposite corner, sealing the edges with the flour paste.
- Repeat the process with the remaining wrappers and cheese mixture.
- Place the rolled cheese sticks on the prepared baking sheet, seam side down, leaving a little space between each roll.
- Lightly brush the tops of the rolls with oil or melted butter for extra crispiness.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and crispy.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
- Enjoy your crispy cheese rolls as a delicious appetizer or snack! Optionally, serve with marinara sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
- Ensure the cheese mixture is well-combined for even distribution of flavors.
- Seal the spring roll wrappers tightly to prevent the cheese from leaking during baking.
- Adjust the baking time as needed to achieve the desired level of crispiness.
- Feel free to experiment with different herbs and spices to customize the flavor of the cheese rolls.
- Serve the crispy cheese rolls hot for the best taste and texture.
- These rolls can be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven for a few minutes before serving.
