My wife's been raving about mashed potato spring rolls ever since she tried them at a restaurant a few years back. They didn't sound that exciting, so I never had the urge to recreate them before now. I admit I was wrong -- these things are pretty great. When making them, be sure to start with really good, fluffy, homemade mashed potatoes. Not potato puree. And no instant stuff.

Steps

30 minutes

1

Add a small knob of butter to a small pan on medium heat. Add the garlic and fry for 1 minute, just long enough to take away the raw garlic bite.
2

Put the garlic, mashed potatoes, cheese and green onion in a mixing bowl, along with a good pinch of salt and a good pinch of ground white pepper. Fold the mash into itself several times until everything is combined.
3

Form spring rolls using the wonton wrappers, and 1 1/2 tbsp of potato mixture at a time. There are many videos online on how to wrap spring rolls properly. You should end up with about 18 rolls. Put them in a freezer for 30 minutes to set.
4

Fry the spring rolls using a deep fryer or a pan with 2 in vegetable oil on medium heat. Once they're golden brown, remove them to a paper-towel lined tray to drain. Serve hot with your favourite dip (mine is chipotle mayo).
