Vegetable Crystal Rolls

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tofu

    Press the firm tofu to remove excess moisture and then cut it into thin strips.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Julienne the carrot and set aside. Wash and dry the lettuce leaves, cilantro, and mint.

  3. 3

    Cook the Rice Noodles

    Cook the rice noodles according to package instructions. Drain and rinse under cold water.

  4. 4

    Soften the Rice Paper

    Fill a shallow dish with warm water. Dip one rice paper sheet into the water for about 10-15 seconds until soft.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Rolls

    Place the softened rice paper on a flat surface. In the center, layer tofu, julienned carrots, lettuce, rice noodles, cilantro, and mint. Drizzle with soy sauce and sesame oil.

  6. 6

    Roll the Wraps

    Fold the sides of the rice paper over the filling, then roll from the bottom up to enclose the filling completely.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Repeat the process for the remaining rice paper sheets. Serve with chili sauce on the side for dipping.
