Sausage, black-eyed peas and turnip greens give these unique egg rolls a decidedly southern accent. When I bring them to a party, I always come home with an empty plate. —Holly Jones, Kennesaw, Georgia
Southern-Style Egg Rolls
Ingredients
- sauce:
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- egg rolls:
- 1 pound bulk pork sausage
- 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1 teaspoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 package (16 ounces) frozen turnip greens, thawed and squeezed dry
- 2 cups shredded pepper jack cheese
- 1 cup canned black-eyed peas
- 24 egg roll wrappers
- Oil for deep-fat frying
Directions
- In a small bowl, mix the sauce ingredients until blended. Refrigerate, covered, until serving.
- For egg rolls, in a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until no longer pink, breaking into crumbles, 6-8 minutes; drain. Cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, green onions, soy sauce and garlic powder until blended; stir in turnip greens, cheese, black-eyed peas and sausage.
- With one corner of an egg roll wrapper facing you, place 3 tablespoons filling just below center of wrapper. (Cover remaining wrappers with a damp paper towel until ready to use.) Fold bottom corner over filling; moisten remaining wrapper edges with water. Fold side corners toward center over filling. Roll egg roll up tightly, pressing at tip to seal. Repeat.
- In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry egg rolls, a few at a time, until golden brown, 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally. Drain on paper towels. Serve with sauce.
