Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 10 pieces rice paper wrappers
- 200 grams firm tofu
- 1 medium, julienned carrot
- 1 medium, julienned cucumber
- 1 medium, julienned red bell pepper
- 1 large, sliced avocado
- 50 grams fresh cilantro leaves
- 50 grams fresh mint leaves
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 medium, juiced lime
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon pepper
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil
- 2 cups water
Instructions
Slice firm tofu into thin strips about 1/2 inch by 2 inches in size.
In a pan over medium heat, add cooking oil and fry tofu strips until golden brown on all sides, about 6-8 minutes. Set aside to cool.
Prepare all vegetables: julienne the carrot, cucumber, and red bell pepper; slice the avocado; wash and pick the cilantro and mint leaves.
In a shallow dish, add water. Submerge a rice paper wrapper until it is soft and pliable, about 20-30 seconds, then carefully remove and place on a clean surface.
At one end of the rice paper, place a small amount of carrot, cucumber, red bell pepper, tofu strips, avocado slices, cilantro leaves, and mint leaves.
Fold the sides inward and roll the wrapper tightly around the filling to form a roll. Repeat this process with the remaining ingredients until all are used.
To make the dipping sauce, mix soy sauce, lime juice, honey, sesame oil, salt, and pepper in a small bowl until well combined.
Serve the vegetable rolls chilled or at room temperature with the dipping sauce on the side.
