- In a bowl, combine the avocado, sun-dried tomato, onion, cilantro, salt and pepper. Fold together until well-incorporated.
- To assemble egg rolls: Place an egg roll wrapper on your working surface. Add a tablespoon of guacamole in one corner and brush the other three corners with beaten egg.
- On a diagonal, roll the corner with the guacamole halfway, then fold in the two sides the side corners toward the center. Once sides are tucked in, roll again to finish the roll. Repeat for remaining egg roll wrappers and filling. Cover and set aside ensuring that the dough doesn't dry out.
- In a frying pan with oil, brown the egg rolls until golden brown.
