Total Time25 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • Avocados: 3 medium, ripe but slightly firm
  • Red onion: 1/4 cup, finely diced
  • Roma tomato: 1 small, seeds removed, finely diced
  • Cilantro: 2 tablespoons, chopped
  • Lime: 1 lime (zest and juice)
  • Garlic: 1 small clove, minced (or 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder)
  • Jalapeño (optional): 1/2 small, seeded and finely minced
  • Salt and black pepper: To taste
  • Ground cumin: 1/4 teaspoon (optional)
  • Egg roll wrappers: 10–12 standard wrappers
  • Neutral oil spray: Avocado or canola oil
  • Water or beaten egg: For sealing the wrappers
  • Dipping sauce (choose one): Sweet chili sauce; or make a quick cilantro-lime yogurt sauce (Greek yogurt, lime juice, cilantro, pinch of salt); or chipotle ranch

Instructions

  • Prep the filling: Halve, pit, and scoop the avocados into a bowl. Gently mash with a fork, leaving small chunks for texture. Stir in onion, tomato, cilantro, lime zest and juice, garlic, jalapeño (if using), cumin, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  • Set up your workstation: Place a small bowl of water (or beaten egg) nearby for sealing. Lay out the egg roll wrappers and keep a clean, slightly damp towel over the stack so they don’t dry out.
  • Fill the wrappers: Position a wrapper like a diamond. Spoon about 2–3 tablespoons of avocado filling slightly below the center. Keep the filling compact for tidy rolls.
  • Roll it up: Fold the bottom corner over the filling, then fold in the left and right sides snugly. Roll away from you into a tight cylinder. Brush the top corner with water or egg to seal.
  • Preheat the air fryer: Set to 375°F (190°C) for 3 minutes. Lightly spray the basket with oil to prevent sticking.
  • Arrange and spray: Place rolls seam-side down in a single layer, leaving space between each. Lightly mist the tops with oil for even browning.
  • Air fry: Cook for 7–9 minutes, flipping halfway. They’re done when the wrappers are golden and crisp. If needed, add 1–2 minutes for extra crunch.
  • Cool briefly: Let the rolls rest for 2–3 minutes. This sets the filling and makes them easier to slice.
  • Serve: Cut on the diagonal and plate with your dipping sauce of choice. Sprinkle with extra cilantro or a pinch of flaky salt.
