Vegetable Summer Rolls
Makes eight servings
210-240g firm tofu (about 1¼ cups), cut into 2.5cm pieces
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
8 20cm rice paper rounds
4 leaves lettuce (butter or Boston variety works best), halved
1
⁄
3
cup chopped fresh coriander
1 large carrot, cut into 5 cm thin slices (julienne)
3 spring onions, thinly sliced
24 fresh basil leaves
15g fresh ginger, cut into 5 cm thin slices (julienne)
Marinate the tofu with the soy sauce and sesame oil for about 10 minutes.
While tofu is marinating, heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Sauté the tofu in the
hot pan for about 30 seconds per side. Reserve.
In a shallow baking pan, soak rice paper in hot water to cover until softened, about 30
seconds per paper.
Carefully lay the soaked rice paper on a plate. Arrange one half of the lettuce on the paper,
leaving a 2.5cm border along the edge. Top the lettuce with one-eighth of the tofu, coriander,
carrots, spring onions, basil and ginger. Fold the corners of the long side over the filling and,
rolling away from you, roll up the filling in the wrapper, sealing the roll, using some water if
necessary.
Repeat with remaining rice paper and fillings.
Serve with peanut dipping sauce (see previous recipe).
Note: If you wish to make spring rolls instead of summer rolls, use egg roll wrappers. Fill and
wrap in the same fashion as the summer rolls, but instead fry in 1½ cups of vegetable oil
heated to 175ºC in a large sauté pan – about 15 seconds per side of egg roll.
