Fried Chicken Roll Recipe

This is a proper savory snack which is heavy at heart. We all love street food because who doesn't, but also we cannot eat outside food more often as its not good for our health. There is this particular vendor we usually get these chicken rolls from which taste juicy and crispy for every single bite but then suddenly there was a day we noticed that the shop is no longer available and we knew that we will never be able to taste those rolls again.

So later that week i decided to give a quick google search for the similar recipe and tried to recreate the same, after many failure versions finally we have found the prefect home friendly recipe.

Chicken roll is very similar to spring rolls but the wrappers is bit heavy and can be made from scratch at very few simple steps. We used chicken fillings but you can use any type of fillings according to your preferences. This snack can be a bit heavy as it is been deep fried. I hope you guys try and enjoy this recipe as much we do.
