Leftover Turkey And Stuffing Logs

1. 1

   Pour oil into a deep fryer and heat to 375 F. You can do this on the stove top as well. If you do, heat oil in a deep pot (keep oil low in the pot to prevent splashing). Use a thermometer to check temperature of oil; if you do not have a thermometer drop one un-popped popcorn kernel into the oil. When it pops the oil is hot.

2. 2

   While oil is heating put one egg roll wrapper on a plate with a corner pointing towards you. Spoon a tablespoon each of turkey and stuffing onto the wrapper near the corner closest to you. Roll it up like an egg roll: wrap the corner that's pointing towards you over the turkey and stuffing, fold over once then fold in the two corners, roll until the wrapper is all wrapped. Use your finger to dab a little water on the last corner to help keep it closed. Repeat with the rest of the wrappers and filling. If you prefer to not cook them right away, you can freeze the logs at this point and cook another day (see note below).

3. 3

   Gently place logs into the fryer making sure they are not overlapping each other (you'll probably want to cook them in several batches so you don't crowd them). Cook until logs are brown (about 5 minutes). Use a slotted spoon or kitchen spider and take rolls out of the oil. Place on paper towels and let cool. Repeat with the rest of the rolls.

   Serve warm with gravy and/or cranberry sauce.

   Notes:

6. 6

   1. if you freeze the logs make sure you put something between them so they do not stick together. I usually wrap each one in a fold-over sandwich baggie.

   2. You can add other leftover fillings in too (potatoes, veggies, etc...) whatever you like.

   3. Cooking note: other people have commented that you can put these in the oven to cook them, I have never tried this, but you can!
