These are really good and not as difficult to make as they seem.
Vegetarian tofu rice paper dumplings
(makes 9 dumplings, not quite a dinner amount for 4)
From Tiktok:
Ingredients:
SAUCE:
- 4 T. soy sauce
- 1.5 T. rice vinegar
- 1 t. sesame oil
- 1 clove garlic, grated
- 1 t. ginger, grated
- 2 scallions or green onions, sliced
- sesame seeds
- add sirraccha or chili flakes if you want it spicy
DUMPLINGS
- 1/2 block firm tofu, shredded
- 1 large carrot, peeled and shredded
- 1/4 head cabbage, sliced thin and chopped into lengths or shredded (these measures approx -- try to get roughly even amounts of tofu, carrot and cabbage)
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 18 rice papers
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Mix sauce ingredients together in a bowl
2. fry veggies up in a pan with a little oil until cooked down. Near the end, add in some of the sauce to taste and cook it down -- I think I ended up adding 5 teaspoons or so?
3. dip rice paper wrappers in warm water, put 1 heaping tablespoon of filling in the center of each one and fold over the edges: bottom, top, left, right. Then dip one more rice paper wrapper and wrap it again, making sure the folds are on the opposite side.
4. In your frying pan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add your dumplings and fry until crisp. serve with more of the dipping sauce to dip into.
