Cheesecake Factory Avocado Egg Rolls Copycat Recipe Tips:

  • First, make sure you choose ripe avocados. However, not too mushy or that already start to have black spots on the inside when you cut them.
  • To ripen a hard avocado, store it in a brown paper bag.
  • Also, when you dice the avocados, don’t mash them, you don’t want to end up with guacamole.
  • Roll the Avocado Egg Rolls tightly, and don’t overfill them with the avocado-tomato mixture.
  • Use unsalted cashews, for this recipe I like using raw cashews.
  • In addition, when frying the rolls, it’s best to use vegetable or canola oil. Because, if using olive oil, will result in darker rolls. You need a high score of oil for frying.
  • Fry the rolls just until they start to get golden brown. The ingredients inside don’t need to be fully cooked, so you are looking to only add the crunchy shell.
  • You can serve the rolls with any sauce that you like, or you can make the copycat sauce listed in the recipe.

How to slice or dice an avocado?

  • First, cut the avocado in half.
  • Then, remove the pit – to do that, aim your knife at the pit and whack into it, twist the knife to pull out the pit.
  • Next, use your knife’s tip to score avocado flesh, making squares, then scoop it out with a spoon.
  • If you are looking to slice the avocado, use a spoon to loosen skin all the way around, and scoop out the flesh whole. Place flat side down on cutting board and slice using the tip of your knife.

Stove deep-frying tips:

If you do not own a deep fryer, hello, here I am, I don’t have one. Here are some tips for you, that will guide you on how to safely deep fry the avocado rolls on the stove, using a deep pot or pan:

  • First, choose an appropriate frying oil, these are great: peanut oil, vegetable oil or sunflower oil.
  • Add the oil to a deep pot, fill it no more than half full, to avoid spillovers. Also, use enough oil so that you can submerge a small batch of egg rolls completely.
  • Next, preheat the oil to the cooking temperature of 190 °C / 375 °F or 225 °C / 440 °F. Use a frying or candy thermometer to measure the oil temperature.
  • Make sure the food you are adding to the pot is dry. If needed, use paper towels to remove external moisture. In addition, the presence of external moisture on foods can cause the oil to splatter violently.
  • Don’t get too close to the oil and use long tongs, a slotted deep-fry spoon, or a frying basket to add or remove foods gently from the pot.
  • In case of pot catching fire, NO NOT USE: water, flour, or sugar to put out the grease fire, do not try to carry a flaming pot outdoors. To suffocate the fire, USE: baking soda, a damp towel, or a fire extinguisher specifically designed for grease fires.
  • Once you add the rolls to the hot oil, just 1 minute may be enough. Since we are not looking to cook the interior of the food further. Also, keep in mind, smaller pieces of food will cook faster and more evenly than larger pieces.
  • Drain the cooked food on paper towels.

  1. Now this sounds like a delicious recipe, we don’t have a Cheesecake Factory over here so it’s nice to have some copycat recipes so I get to try bits.

  2. Holy Moly this looks DELICIOUS! I have never had this at Cheesecake Factory but I have only been lucky enough to eat there a few times in my life. We do not have one truly local to me. Ours is about an hour and 15 minutes away. I only get over to that town now and then and usually for some specific reason.
    I will totally make these! Thank you!5 stars

  3. Wow and wow! This is so amazing! This recipe is so delicious even you can only see it in the photo and it looks like it is so easy to prepare, I will definitely try to make this for my family.5 stars

  4. Yum! These actually…look better that the Cheesecake factory ones. I have to make them!!5 stars

  5. I haven’t had these at Cheesecake Factory but your version looks amazing. We LOVE avocado and I’m always looking for interesting recipes. We’ll be trying these this weekend.5 stars

  6. These sound awesome! I’ve never had these at the Cheesecake Factory but will have to try them the next time I’m there.5 stars

  7. Oh wow! These look delicious! I’ve never tried these before as we don’t have a Cheesecake Factory near us but I’d like to try!

    1. the wrappers tend to dry out at room temperature, you would have to keep a moist towel on top of them. I would say you make the rolls, and quickly heat up before serving. You can lay them on a baking sheet and heat up in the oven for a few minutes.

  8. So freeze them uncooked then take them out of the freezer to cook?   The avocado won’t turn brown?  Thx

  9. has anyone tried to premake these and freeze them ? is the color change drastic ? had a recomendation for something similar and was wondering if id have to make them to order or if theyd be presentable premade

  10. Hi! Happy Holidays.
    Did you get the response you wanted? Did you try to make it in advance? If so did the avocado turn brown after cooking it? I want to make it in advance for a dinner party just to save on time. I’m making mini avocado egg rolls. Please help 😊

    1. You can make it a few hours in advance for sure and it will be ok, make sure you drizzle the avocado with some lemon juice first.

  11. The sauce recipe is wrong. The actual sauce is a Tamarind Cashew Dipping Sauce:

    Ingredients
    1/4 cup chopped cashews
    1 tbsp hoisin sauce
    2 medium garlic cloved – minced
    2 green onions – chopped
    1/2 tsp ground black pepper
    1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
    1/4 cup canola oil
    3 tsp honey
    6 tbsp rice wine vinegar
    1/2 tsp tamarind pulp
    1/2 tsp toasted sesame seeds

  12. Super SmackTastick!! You Nailed it the Sauce is so good my friends want to take shots of just the sauce. I made the sauce a day ahead and it gets better overnight. I am also super curious about how these do after freezing.5 stars

  13. SuperSmack! Made the sauce the day before and it gets better. I’m also curious on how they do after freezing. We could take shots of the sauce it’s so good. You nailed it!5 stars

  14. I was wondering if you could please tell me

    Calories?
    Carbs?

  15. Hello! Great recipe!
    The cashew cilantro sauce at Cheesecake Factory has tamarind in it too. Just a little bit makes the sauce taste sweet and gives it a unique flavor. Also its better to not purée the oils because it makes the texture bubbly. Microwave the oils as you suggested, and finely chop cashews and cilantro and green onion and stir in.

  16. How many eggrolls does this make? I find it hard to believe that they are only 115 calories

  17. Ms.Catalina,
    this recipe was A-mazing!!! Thank you so very much for sharing. It’s one of my favorite things on the menu at this restaurant and it’s nice to be able to recreate it at home. It’s light and satisfying. I am sharing your post with my family and friends!5 stars

  18. I made these as wontons, since I was out of egg roll wrappers. They turned out delicious! The sauce was great, I used turmeric instead of saffron and it was delicious.Big hit at the Super Bowl Party.5 stars
