Beef briwates

The term "briwates" refers to a number of appetizers and desserts that use a very thin pastry sheet filled with a sweet or savory mixture and shaped into either cigars, rectangles or little triangles.  The sky is the limit when it comes to the types of filling you can use but the most known ones are almond briwates, beef briwates and shrimp briwates.
These beef briwates were baked but they are traditionally fried; of course they would be even tastier when fried just like anything else lol.
 I suggest baking them for a beginner until you master the folding part because you'll have to have the pastry sheet tightly wrapped around the filling so it doesn't open once it hits hot oil. I bake them to keep the amount of fried food under control.

Ingredients:

Spring roll sheets

Thin chinese rice noodles

Hamburger meat

Green peppers

Cilantro

Onion

Salt/pepper/paprika/cumin

Melted butter and an egg yolk for the folding part.

Directions:

The mixture doesn't have to be what I listed; if you don't like peppers don't use them and you can use as little or as much meat as you want. Taste your mixture (once the meat is cooked) and season to your taste.

Cook the rice noodles by placing them in a bowl full of boiling water and let them soak for about 5 minutes. Drain and cut into small pieces.

Add 2 tablespoons of oil to a hot skillet and add the green pepper cut into very small cubes. Add the finely chopped onion. Once the pepper and onion are tender add cilantro and all the other seasonings. Mix quickly and add your hamburger meat in chunks.

Using a wooden spatula work quickly to make sure that the meat is combined with all the other ingredients and that there are no big chunks of meat.

Once the meat is cooked add the noodles and mix very well. Let the mixture completely cool.

Grab your spring roll sheet, and cut it to the size of your preference. I like my cigars medium sized so I cut 2 inches off the width. Brush the sheet with melted butter (This will make it crispy once cooked) place an amount of the mixture in the center and fold as shown in the picture

Remember to fold the sides so that they cover the mixture.

Add egg yok to seal the bottom, brush each cigar with melted butter and bake at a 400 degree until golden brown and crispy.

Enjoy!
