Ingredients

  • 8/10 Rice Paper sheets – 22cm (can buy from many oriental shops) 1/4 of head red cabbage (shredded) 1 medium carrot (shredded)
  • 1 yellow or red capsicum (chopped into thin strips)
  • 1/4 cucumber (cut into thin strips) 1 cup - washed baby spinach leaves
  • Small bunch coriander leaves Mint leaves
  • Tofu (medium to firm) cut into strips 1 tsp black or white sesame seeds
  • 2 tsps olive oil
  • 2 tsp light soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp corn flour
  • (room temperature water for dipping Rice sheets)

Instructions

  1. Drain the tofu block thoroughly using a muslin. Cut through the middle and down the short side of the block to get roughly 1.5cm cubed strips – dust tofu strips in cornflour
  2. In a non-stick pan add oil, once hot gently add in tofu strips and cook until golden brown on all four sides. Drizzle in soy sauce and add sesame seeds. Cook for a further minute. Transfer onto plate and cool.
  3. Place room temperature water in a large enough dish to soak rice paper for 10/15 seconds - until flimsy (rice paper should become translucent). Remove and place flat on a dry surface. Start from the bottom of the rice paper disk and line your vegetable filling starting with a couple of strips of tofu. You will only need a couple of mint leaves and a garnish of coriander
  4. Do not over fill. Fold the two sides parallel and roll up tightly holding down on the filling. Press to seal with a little water if needed – repeat the process for all 8 rice paper discs
