PASTRAMI EGG ROLLS
Meat ▪ Yields 18 Egg Rolls
A new way to serve the ubiquitous crepe that is synonymous with Pesach. Baking it uncovered gives it a real egg roll wrapper texture.
CREPES
8 eggs
1 cup potato starch
1 cup water
½ teaspoon salt
oil, for frying
FILLING
1 Tablespoon oil
2 onions, julienned
1 (8-ounce) bag shredded
green cabbage
8 slices pastrami
½ teaspoon garlic powder
Directions
- Prepare the crepes: Beat eggs lightly; add remaining ingredients. Don’t overbeat.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 10” nonstick frying pan. Pour a scant ¾ cup batter into hot pan; swirl pan to cover the bottom completely. As soon as batter is set, use a spatula to carefully flip over for 15 seconds. Remove from pan. Continue until all batter has been used. You may need to re-grease pan in between crepes.
- Prepare the filling: In a large skillet, heat oil. Add julienned onions and shredded cabbage. Sauté until onions are soft and cabbage is wilted. Add pastrami strips and garlic powder. Sauté 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Make the egg rolls: Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place 1/3 cup filling at one edge of a crepe. Fold top and bottom in, then roll, starting from filling. Place seam-side down on prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining crepes and filling.
- Bake, uncovered, for approximately 20 minutes until crispy.
CITRUS SEA BASS
Pareve ▪ Yields 4 servings
The stunning presentation is part of this sea bass recipe. When eaten together, the citrus fruits and avocado complement the subtle flavors of the fish. The bonus is that its beauty will surely enhance your Yom Tov table. Easy to prepare and always gourmet, this is a must on your menu this year.
2 oranges
2 pink grapefruits
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
4 (6-ounce) skinless sea bass fillets
1 Tablespoon oil
1 avocado, diced just before serving
4 Tablespoons avocado oil
Directions
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Using a small sharp knife, cut off all peel and white pith from fruit. Working over a medium bowl, cut between membranes to release segments into bowl.
- Squeeze juices from membranes into the bowl; discard membranes. Drain fruit, reserving ½ cup fruit juices. Return the ½ cup of reserved juice to the bowl with fruit.
- Season fillets with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add fish; cook until golden brown and releases easily from pan, 6-8 minutes.
- Transfer fish gently to a 9 x 13” pan, cooked side up. Bake until just opaque in the center, 5-10 minutes.
- Divide fruit and avocado between individual plates; top each with a sea bass fillet. Spoon 2 tablespoons citrus juices and 1 tablespoon avocado oil over the fish and fruit on each plate.
