Banana Rolls

hey guys,
I've begun to notice a trend in my cooking. I like to take generally healthy recipes and make them as bad for you as possible. Borscht turns into cheese toast, couscous turns into a bacterial farm of mush rotting in my fridge, and homemade hashbrowns turn into a heart attack waiting to happen. This week, I decided to make eggroles- an expression which here means, watch my boyfriend cook the pork and vegetables while I sat around drinking wine and rolling all his hard work in rice paper.
Anyway, I love eggrolls, especially when my grandma makes them, but as she didn't make these ones they got old real fast. Pretty soon I found myself rolling bananas and nutella in rice paper instead and frying up these bad boys for dinner. WHY do I do things like that!? Maybe it's because the nutella packaging promises to provide an excellent source of calcium and energy. I don't know. Having said all this, banana's and nutella wrapped in rice paper and plunged into a bubbling pot of sizzling oil tastes REALLY good. I'll be doing it again sometime soon.

How to make Banana Rolls:
- bananas
- a jar of nutella
- lots of oil
- rice paper
- one egg

Crack the egg open and pour the egg white into a bowl. Figure out what to do with the egg yolk so that you don't feel wasteful. I don't have any suggestions for you though (I threw mine out :( ). Next, set up the rice papers in front of you and start peeling some bananas. Cover the rice papers in nutella, on spread the egg whites around the edges of the rolls. (The egg white works like glue and stops the eggrolls from unrolling once it goes into the oil.) Place about half a banana (unless you have tiny bananas or big rolls) onto the nutella/rice paper combo and roll it all up. Next put it in the pot of frying oil (you want to have enough oil in there so that the roll is completely submerged. Take it out after about two minutes, or once it's golden brown, and voila! You have a really unhealthy and delicious dessert. Or dinner, if you want to be realistic about it.
