@quince8800 yes you can but it will not melt but it will still taste good :)

[LoriMahmoud]

love your cheese roll recipe also put some hot pepper in for my husband it was very good thanks Dede

[dedemed]

@LoriMahmoud that sounds great, even adding some jalapenos :)

[MrNEFF209]

i would put some cream cheese and then parsley on top

[dedemed]

@MrNEFF209 that's a great idea, i will try that next time :)

[fleur257]

What can I use in place of the egg as a binder?

[dedemed]

@fleur257 you can actually mix 2 tbs of flour with 2 tbs or so of water and that will make a glue that you can use to bind the cheese rolls.

[dizzymaiden]

Hi - have you ever made sumsum or maybe it's simsim bread? My husband loves this bread and we used to get it but the bakery closed. It is a sweet bread with sesame seeds on top with honey or I think simple syrup?

[dedemed]

@dizzymaiden i actually don't have a recipe but I do know what you are talking about, and it sounds fantastic :)

[bluebunnyforever]

do u have a cookbook out? or d o u know an english one that has all these great recipes?

[dedemed]

@bluebunnyforever my site is all in English and all of the recipes are written out there, check it out :)

[pedropedspedro]

hello dede. i work in a ship as a cook and we have plenty of spring roll wrapper in the freezer. can i use those wrappers for this recipe? thank you very much.i am learning from your videos.

[dedemed]

@pedropedspedro Yes you definitely can use spring roll wrappers, they will work great for this :)

[OMGaNEWBIE]

@dedemed **Hi again, can this recipe be used with rice wontons (gluten free), instead of the wheat/gluten egg rolls? I wonder if they sell GF egg rolls dough?

I am just learning about GF bcos I just found out that I have to live GF. I will learn how to make the GF adjustments and use your recipes.

Your a very good teacher!

Thank you

[dedemed]

@OMGaNEWBIE you can use what ever dough paper that you like :) Even GF works :)

[dedemed]

@arabianbint81 nope, not yet but it's on the list to come :)

[Jessabilly]

is there a way to seal the dough together without using egg?

[dedemed]

@Jessabilly Yes, you can mix 1 tbs of flour with 2-3 tbs of water and use that as a glue for the rolls :)

[shesobreezy]

mmmm make that with spaghetti. Is it healthy?

[dedemed]

@shesobreezy you can bake it and that would make it more healthy :)

[TheVittleVlog]

Wow....Looks great!!!

[WLUbeans]

Great recipe :) I have family visiting this weekend, so I'm going to try them out!

[sixstringzzz]

You're beautiful! Shame you're already married :0(

[MysticSoul2010]

Hi Dede, I just made these, and oh my god so yummyy... but I used won ton wrappers instead; i used fetta cheese w/mozzarela, kolby & jack cheese. I am from Albania and tend to like mediterranean food...I will definitely impress once I make these for guests. Thank you so much ! you're awesome : )

[dedemed]

wonderful thinking, happy cooking!

[noonii123123]

[dedemed]

[MidnightClubin]

[darkwarrior82]

lol when you where eating it at the end it made me hungry lol btw you look really pretty keep up the good work

[dedemed]

thank you.

[Ezldor]

the rakaat part made me laugh , your arabic accent is kinda weird :) , and that not how u pronounce it , but u did your best :D

the ackawi is really good , u could use it for kunafa , but first put it in water a few times to make it without salt , and it'll taste wonderful

[dedemed]

very true, good hint

[Ahmedfiliz]

I love it ! and you are so beautiful :)

[dedemed]

thank you and HAPPY COOKING!

[datzfast]

im trying that on my next grilled cheese sandwich

[dedemed]

great idea :)

[essturd]

those look so good. and so simple! love it.

[antonzack1001]

can i just put them in the oven and let them cook is that good.

[dedemed]

yes you can :)

[badmedusa]

Nice recipe! :)

Sigue así! :)

[2hotinaz]

Would these be good wrapped in filo dough then fried as you've done here? (I just like filo better than egg roll wrappers) Or, if you brush the filo with butter, then maybe they could be baked instead of fried? Just curious. I like to try different things. I just subbed to you, BTW.

[dedemed]

Exactly, just use phyllo dough and brush with butter and bake until lightly browned :)

[zachmar2nouri]

did you study in a school or you mom/grandma/dad/grangdad ect ... teach you ?

[dedemed]

I learned from both and from all:)

[moapictures]

DELÍCIA

[african09pride]

I love ALL your video's. PLz keep doing what you are doing!!

[dedemed]

thank you for your support :)

[loveswoWalot]

Hey dede, i made these rolls and they are absolutely delicious. i was wandering if you had the recipe for spinage pies

[dedemed]

yes of course, check out my "best spinach pie recipe"

[LadyMercedes126]

Wow! I just made a few rolls about five minutes ago and they are delicious. I wasn't able to find the ackawi cheese so I used mozzarella cheese instead but it was still delicious. Thanks for the recipe and keep up the good work! =)

[dedemed]

that's wonderful, I'm glad you were innovative :)

[ihsandeeb]

wallah khalas!! haha your making me hungry am lebanese of course lol anyways i have a question for you. have you ever heard of shankleesh? i bought some today from the araba store and i dont know exacally how to use the cheese. its kinda weird. lol i just subscribed to you. wallah your an incredible cook. inchallah my khatebta knows how to cook haha. yallah allah maek

[dedemed]

THank you for your comments. Here's what you do with shankleesh, first cut up the shankleesh very small. Next cut up some onions, tomatoes, fresh mint and mix these with the shankleesh, next put them in a plate and drizzle some olive oil on top. IF you'd like you can also add some cayenne pepper to spice it up :)

[catlovergal]

dede, i need to know the name of the cheese you used to mix with the akawi and i also need to know if u recommend to fry those only in olive oil or any oil will do?

[nevfranco]

instead of egg wash ..my mom uses just plain old simple water...eggs make ure hands smell bad..other than that kul sena winty salma!!!

[dedemed]

True, eggs do smell if they are not fresh but it does add wonderful color. Or you can use a butter spray as well :)

[garlicsaucelover]

Hi dede,

Your an amazing cook, I have 3 questions,

Can you make a video about cheese pies??

E xample you live in an undeveloped country and you wone find any egg rolls?? Is there any substitute???

and my final question...

Have you considered opening a tv show???

Thanks a LOT

your fan garlicsaucelover

( as you may know the only reason i joined you tube was for your Garlic sauce recipe)

[dedemed]

Yes you can make cheese pies, use my easy dough recipe and just fill it with the same cheese mix that I use in this video. Hopefully one day I will have a TV show, maybe food network will find me :)

Let me know if you have any other questions.

[officesecrets]

Your better than Rachel Ray

[loginname2828]

[sunnah1420]

Dede,

Can I use Halloumi cheese instead of ackawi?

Thx.

[dedemed]

Halloum doesn't melt well, you can use mozerella instead of ackawi, i often do that when I can't find ackawi :)
