Servings: persons

2 cups pumpkin puree (canned, or cook your own)
1 cup apple cider
1/2 stick butter
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon nutmet
1 pinch cloves
24 egg roll wrappers
1 pound ricotta cheese
1 egg, beaten
1 cup vegetable or canola oil
powdered sugar (optional)
cinnamon sugar (optional)

1
Combine pumpkin puree, cider, butter and spices in a medium, heavy saucepan. Cook over low heat for an hour, until thickened. Set aside to cool.
2
Beat egg with a little tap water and set to one side.
3
Place egg roll wrapper on a plate or cutting board, with a point toward you (so it looks like a diamond). Put a tablespoon of ricotta in the center, spread it out with the spoon. Top with a tablespoon or two of pumpkin mixture.
4
With your fingers, fold the bottom point up. Coat the edges of that point with beaten egg. Fold the two side points in; coat the top edges of those flaps with beaten egg. Fold the top point down. Press lightly to seal (but not hard enough to squish out the filling!).
5
Heat oil in a heavy skillet over medium high until it shimmers. Fry turnovers, starting with fold side up, until golden; flip and fry other side until golden. Drain on racks over paper towels.
6
If desired, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar or powdered sugar. Best fresh and hot, but respectable heated back up in the toaster oven!
