Warm Tofu Rolls (Tofu Rice Paper Rolls)

Prep:

20 minutes

Cooking:

10 minutes

Serves:

2

INGREDIENTS

10 large rice paper sheets
1½ cup (150g) firm tofu, cut into matchsticks
2 cups shredded cabbage
1½ cups grated carrot (1 carrot)
3/4 cup chopped spring onion (2-3 stalks)
2 teaspoon minced ginger
2 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1½ tablespoon reduced salt soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon oyster sauce

TIPS:

  • To prevent the rice paper from sticking to your work surface, keep the rice paper wet. You can also try working on a damp towel.
  • To stop the rice paper from softening too quickly, you can dip the rice paper in cold water instead of warm.

EQUIPMENTS

  • Fry pan
  • Shallow dish
  • Knife
  • Grater
  • Stirring spoon
  • Measuring cups and spoons

STEPS

1

To make the filling, add sesame oil to a fry pan over medium heat. Add vegetables and cook until the vegetable are soft.

2

Stir in ginger, garlic, soy sauce, oyster sauce and rice wine vinegar and cook for 2 mins.

3

Add tofu and cook for a further 1-2 minutes. Stir in spring onion and set aside to cool.

4

Fill a shallow dish with warm water to soak rice paper for 5-10 seconds, then place onto a flat working surface or chopping board.

5

Place approximately 2 tablespoons of filling into the middle of the softened rice paper. Fold the bottom of the rice paper upwards to cover the filling, then fold the left and right sides inwards. Roll upwards to seal. Repeat steps for the remaining rolls.

6

Serve with a chilli soy sauce or on their own.
