One of the favorite appetizers to order at a Leban One of the favorite appetizers to order at a Lebanese or Middle Eastern restaurant are these fried cheese rolls, luckily, they can easily be made at home; it’s hard to eat just one; they are super decadent with a stretchy oozy filling and a thin and crispy wrapper. For the  best results, fry these, but if you are a health-consious person, you can cook these in your air fryer. The result will not be nearly as crispy, but they will still taste good. #hadiaslebanesecuisine #cheeserolls #mezze #friedappetizers #rkakatjibneh For the cheese filling: 400 grams mozzarella 3 tablespoons sunflower oil 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 cup milk To make the slurry: 1/3 cup flour 1/3 cup water A package of spring roll wrappers
