Main Ingredients- 2 Tortillas
- 2 Slices of Cheese
- 1 Egg (egg white only)
- Strawberry Jam
- Frozen Mango (or fresh mango)
- Peanut Butter
- Fresh Strawberries
- Fresh Kiwi
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare your 2 tortillas. Cut each tortilla into 4 equal wedges. This will make them the perfect size for rolling and filling. Pre-cutting makes the rolling process much smoother.
Step 2
Place one slice of cheese onto each of the cut tortilla wedges. As the cheese melts, it will help bind the filling together inside the roll. Gently roll each tortilla wedge, enclosing the cheese.
Step 3
Separate the egg white from the yolk of 1 egg. Lightly whisk the egg white until just frothy. Using a pastry brush, coat the outer edge of each tortilla roll with the egg white. This acts as edible glue, sealing the rolls securely.
Step 4
Now, let’s add the sweet filling! Spread a thin layer of strawberry jam over the tortilla. Then, generously sprinkle your frozen mango pieces over the jam. Packing the mango tightly ensures a delightful texture in every bite.
Step 5
For an extra layer of flavor, combine strawberry jam and peanut butter! Spread them together, allowing the creamy peanut butter and tangy jam to complement each other. Be mindful of the amount – you don’t want the filling to spill out. Leave about a 1cm border along the edge of the tortilla bare to ensure a clean seal.
Step 6
Add a burst of freshness with fresh fruit! After spreading the strawberry jam, arrange slices of fresh strawberries and kiwi onto the tortilla. Feel free to use your favorite fruits; the combination of sweet and tart is delightful. The fresh fruit will add a juicy contrast to the cooked tortilla.
Step 7
Arrange the rolled tortillas neatly on a piece of parchment paper. Prepare an egg wash by lightly whisking the remaining egg white (or use a beaten egg yolk). Brush this egg wash evenly over the entire surface of each tortilla roll. This will give them a beautiful golden-brown color when baked.
Step 8
Time to bake! Preheat your air fryer to 180°C (350°F). Place the prepared tortilla rolls into the air fryer basket and cook for 5 minutes. They should start to turn golden and slightly crispy.
Step 9
After 5 minutes, check the rolls. If they’re close together, give them a bit more space or carefully flip them over. Return them to the air fryer and cook for another 5 minutes at 180°C (350°F). Important safety tip: The rolls will be hot, so always use oven mitts or thick gloves when handling them. Enjoy your perfectly crispy and chewy tortilla rolls!
