Equipment

  • medium saucepan
  • small bowl
  • medium bowl
  • large pot or frying pan

Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Zest from 1 lemon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch +4 Tbsp water
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 12 egg roll wrappers
  • 2 cups vegetable oil
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  • In a medium sized saucepan, place the blueberries, sugar, water, lemon juice, lemon zest and salt.
  • Cook over medium heat for 4-5 minutes, until the blueberries just start to soften.
  • In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 4 tablespoons of water until it’s smooth and add it to the blueberries.
  • Continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture starts to thicken.
  • Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
  • In a medium sized bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth.
  • Pour the oil into a large frying pan and bring the oil to low/medium heat while assembling the eggrolls.
  • Have a small bowl of water close to help seal the wrappers while rolling them.
  • Start with the square wrapper and take about 1-2 teaspoons of the cream cheese mixture and spread it in the center in a diagonal line, leaving room at the corners so it doesn’t spill out.
  • Top it with 1-2 teaspoons of the blueberries.
  • Start by folding opposite corners towards each other.
  • Turn the wrapper 90 degrees and start by rolling it towards the opposite side, trying to scoop the filling into the center of the wrapper as you go.
  • Use your fingers and dip them into the water and seal the wrapper as you go.
  • Press the edges closed as much as possible.
  • Place in the oil and fry on each side for 2-3 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
  • Remove and allow to drain in a paper towel lined plate for the oil to drip off. Let cool and repeat until all are fried. Sprinkle them with powdered sugar and serve while warm!
