    Can you make just the wrapper filled with nutella beforehand and fry it whenever I need? If so, do I refrigerate it or freeze it?

      Hi Sharada 🙂 You should be able to make these ahead and have them sit for a few days in the refrigerator until you fry them. I have not tried making these ahead so I am not too sure how they will turn out. If you give it a try let me know 🙂

      You’re welcome Irina. Most grocery stores have them. They are usually found in the refrigerated Asian food section. I always see them next to the spring roll wraps and tofu.

    These look delish!!! Quick question, do u flip them when frying? Or put enough oil to submerge them completely?

    Reply

    • simplyhomecooked says

      Hi Olesya, I don’t flip them. They cook to fast for me to even flip them. Just make sure there is a good amount of oil. About 1 inch should be enough.
