Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups fresh peaches, peeled and diced
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 package egg roll wrappers (about 20 wrappers)
- 1 cup vegetable oil (for frying)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
- Vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the diced peaches, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, lemon juice, and cornstarch.
- Gently toss everything together until the peaches are well coated. Let this mixture sit for about 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
- Lay an egg roll wrapper on a clean, flat surface with one corner pointing towards you (like a diamond shape).
- Place about 2 tablespoons of the peach filling in the center of the wrapper, being careful not to overfill.
- To seal the egg roll, dip your finger in a little water and moisten the edges of the wrapper.
- Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll it up tightly towards the top corner. Press the edges to seal them well. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- In a large, deep skillet or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat, ensuring enough oil to submerge the egg rolls halfway.
- Once the oil is hot (test by dropping a small piece of bread in; if it sizzles, it’s ready), carefully add a few egg rolls at a time, avoiding overcrowding the pan.
- Fry the egg rolls for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Use tongs to turn them gently for even cooking.
- Once cooked, remove the egg rolls from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Dust the egg rolls with powdered sugar for a sweet touch, using a fine mesh sieve for even distribution.
- Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side for a delightful contrast of temperatures.
- For an extra touch, drizzle caramel or chocolate sauce over the top for added sweetness and visual appeal.
Notes
- Use ripe peaches for the best flavor; firm peaches may not be as sweet or juicy.
- Don’t skip the cornstarch, as it helps thicken the peach filling and prevents it from becoming too runny.
