  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp mushroom seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp five spice

  • 1/2 tsp white pepper
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 tsp cornstarch +1 tbsp water

Instructions

  • Lightly dampen or briefly soak sheets in warm water until pliable. Pat dry. This step is optional because steaming them would soften them as well.
  • Chop shitake mushrooms and cooked them until all water is released. Chop spring onions and julienne carrots.
  • Crumble some tofu in a bowl. Mix together cooked mushrooms, carrots, spring onions and all seasoning. Combine well.
  • Cut the beancurd sheets into squares - about 15-20cm in length.
  • Place a spoonful of filling onto a sheet, roll it up like a spring roll, and seal the 4 edges with corn starch slurry.
  • Steam in a steamer basket for 8-10 minutes.
  • Add oil to a pan and saute ginger, garlic and scallions. Add seasonings, water, corn starch slurry and bring to a boil.
  • Plate the tofu skin rolls neatly on a plate and spoon the sauce over. Garnish with more green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Enjoy!
