Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
First, let's marinate the tofu. In a bowl, mix the soy sauce and sesame oil together, then add the sliced tofu, ensuring it’s well-coated. Let it sit for about 10 minutes.
- 2
While the tofu is marinating, prepare your fresh veggies. Julienning the carrot and cucumber adds a nice crunch and makes them easy to roll.
- 3
Once your tofu has soaked up the flavors, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Gently cook the marinated tofu for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden, then set aside.
- 4
Now, let’s get rolling! Fill a large shallow dish with warm water. Dip a rice paper wrapper into the water for about 10-15 seconds until it softens.
- 5
Once softened, place the wrapper on a clean surface and layer a lettuce leaf, some carrot, cucumber, bell pepper, avocado, and a few pieces of tofu.
- 6
Add a sprinkle of mint and cilantro on top. Now, fold the sides over the filling, then roll from the bottom up tightly. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- 7
For the dipping sauce, mix the peanut vegan butter, maple syrup, lime juice, and water in a small bowl until smooth. If you like some heat, add the chili flakes.
- 8
Serve your spring rolls fresh with the dipping sauce on the side. Enjoy them right away for the best texture!
