Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 pound elbow macaroni
3 tablespoons kosher salt, plus additional for salting water and seasoning egg rolls
1/2 cup (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar
1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons onion powder
3 teaspoons ground black pepper, plus additional for seasoning egg rolls
8 square egg roll wrappers
1 large egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water
Oil, for frying
2 tablespoons smoked paprika
1 bunch fresh chives

Steps:

  • Boil noodles to al dente in salted water. Set aside.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan until hot, then add the flour and cook, whisking, until light blonde in color. Add milk to roux and whisk to combine, then add Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses. Add garlic powder and onion powder.
  • Mix sauce with macaroni and add salt and pepper.
  • Add 2 tablespoons macaroni to a wonton wrapper. Tuck in each side, then roll up, sealing shut with some egg wash.
  • Heat several inches of oil in a Dutch oven until it registers 350 degrees F on a deep-frying thermometer. Fry the egg rolls in batches, turning occasionally to brown evenly, until golden brown and crispy, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Place egg rolls on paper towels and sprinkle with salt, pepper and smoked paprika. Cut egg rolls in half and garnish with chives and additional smoked paprika.

The macaroni and cheese filling was a bit too runny. I think I would have cooked it for a little longer before assembling the egg rolls.

The macaroni and cheese filling was a little bland. I think I would have added some spices or herbs to give it more flavor.

These egg rolls were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would have preferred them if I had baked them instead of frying them.

Macaroni and cheese egg rolls were a hit with my family! The crispy wonton wrappers and the creamy macaroni and cheese filling were a perfect combination. I loved that I could use up leftover macaroni and cheese for this recipe, making it a great way
