Ingredients

  • 1 package spring roll skins (approximately 8 inches square), defrosted
  • 1 tbsp. flour
  • 1 tbsp. water
  • Oil for frying
  • Filling
  • 1 small onion, minced
  • 1 leek, cleaned and chopped
  • 2 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1/2 pound ground beef or lamb
  • Salt
  • Black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp. cumin or kebsa spices
  • 2 egg whites, hard-boiled and chopped
  • Oil for frying

Directions

1

Saute the onions and leek in the oil until transparent. Add the meat, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook until done, breaking up lumps.

2

Add the cumin and the chopped egg whites and mix well.

3

Cut each spring roll skin into 3 strips of equal width (If the dough is not precisely square, use the slightly larger dimension for the length of the strip.) Lay out 3 to 4 strips on your work surface.

4

Place a rounded tsp. of the meat mixture toward the bottom right hand corner of each strip. Fold that corner diagonally over to the top left-hand corner, forming a triangle. As you fold, be certain that the side of the strip lines up perfectly with the folded portion. Continue as if folding a flag, alternately folding the bottom corners in a diagonal pattern. Seal the final flap with a bit of the flour paste.

5

Deep-fry and drain on absorbent paper.
