Instructions:
- Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded jalapeno jack cheese, shredded monterey jack cheese, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix well.
- Assemble the Wrappers: Lay out the spring roll wrappers on a clean work surface. Place a generous 1/2 cup of the cheese mixture in the center of each wrapper. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons of refried beans on top of the cheese.
- Roll the Wrappers: To roll each wrapper, start by having a corner of the wrapper facing towards you. Fold in the two sides, then moisten the edges with water using your finger. Bring up the far corner and seal it with water. Roll the wrapper by folding the bottom edge towards the corner that is sticking out, sealing the flap with water as you go. Think of it like rolling the bottom of an envelope towards the flap.
- Storage Option: At this point, you can either store the wrapped wrappers in a plastic bag in the fridge until you’re ready to cook them, or proceed with cooking immediately.
- Frying Method: If frying, heat vegetable oil in a pan until hot. Test by dipping a corner of the wrapper into the oil – it should sizzle. Fry the wrappers on one side until golden brown, then flip and cook until both sides are golden.
- Baking Method: Alternatively, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush each wrapper with vegetable oil and place them on a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until they are nicely browned.
- Serve: Once cooked, serve the bean ‘n cheese stuffed wrappers with your favorite salsa for dipping.
These delicious wrappers are sure to be a hit at your next gathering or as a tasty snack any time of day. Enjoy! 🎉
