These delicious vegan tofu rolls with creamy avocado, mixed greens and mint leaves are a light and protein-rich snack. They are quick and easy to make too!
Makes 4 servings
You’ll need:
1/4 cup miso paste, preferably white
2 Tbsp maple syrup
4 tsp rice vinegar
2 tsp sesame seeds
350g extra-firm tofu
1 firm, ripe avocado
2 medium carrots
8 sheets rice paper
4 cups mixed greens
1 cup basil or mint leaves
Here’s how:
- Whisk miso with maple syrup, vinegar and sesame seeds in a bowl. Slice tofu into 16 strips. Cut avocado in half, discard pip, scoop flesh from peel and slice. Peel long ribbons from carrots.
- Lay a damp kitchen towel on counter. Fill a pie plate with warm water and place beside towel. Line up ingredients.
- Dip 1 rice-paper round into water and leave until pliable, about 30 seconds. Lay softened round on towel. Place some salad greens just below the centre. Layer with basil, carrot, avocado and tofu. Drizzle with about 2 teaspoons of miso dressing.
- Lift rice paper edge closest to you up and over filling, then roll toward the centre. Fold in sides, then continue rolling to form a log. Set seam-side down on a platter. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
- Slice tofu rolls in half diagonally and serve.
