Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 sheets Dried tofu skin (yuba sheets)
- 1 medium Carrots
- 6 pieces Shiitake mushrooms
- 1 cup (shredded) Cabbage
- 2 stalks Green onions
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (low sodium)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon Water
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground white pepper
Instructions
Soak the dried tofu skin (yuba sheets) in warm water for about 10-15 minutes, or until soft and pliable. Drain and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Peel and julienne the carrot. Thinly slice the shiitake mushrooms and chop the green onions finely. Shred the cabbage.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the sesame oil. Add the carrots, mushrooms, cabbage, and green onions. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes or until the vegetables are softened but still retain some crunch.
Add the low-sodium soy sauce, salt, and white pepper to the skillet and mix well. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, then remove the skillet from heat and allow the vegetable mixture to cool slightly.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. This will be used to seal the tofu skin rolls.
Lay one softened tofu skin sheet on a clean surface. Place 2-3 tablespoons of the vegetable filling near the bottom edge of the sheet. Fold the sides inward, then roll up tightly like a burrito.
Seal the edge of the roll with a small amount of the cornstarch slurry. Repeat with the remaining tofu skin sheets and filling.
Place a steaming rack in a large pot or use a bamboo steamer. Add water to the pot just below the level of the steaming rack and bring it to a boil.
Arrange the tofu skin rolls on a heatproof plate or parchment paper in the steamer. Steam over medium heat for 7-10 minutes, or until the rolls are heated through and set.
Serve the tofu skin rolls hot with a side of soy sauce or a light dipping sauce of your choice. Enjoy your healthy, low-fat tofu skin rolls!
