Rice Rolls with Soy Sauce

These delightful rice rolls are a staple of Kosher Chinese breakfasts, combining soft rice noodles with a savory filling. Served with a rich soy sauce for dipping, they are both satisfying and easy to prepare.

Ingredients

• Rice noodles - 200 grams
• Carrot - 1 medium, julienned
• Cucumber - 1 small, julienned
• Tofu - 100 grams, firm, sliced into strips
• Soy sauce - 4 tablespoons
• Sesame oil - 1 tablespoon
• Green onion - 2, chopped
• Salt - to taste
• Pepper - to taste

Steps

1. Soak the rice noodles in warm water for about 15 minutes until softened. Drain and set aside.
2. In a pan, heat the sesame oil over medium heat and add the tofu strips. Cook until golden brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. On a clean surface, lay out a softened rice noodle. Place a small amount of carrot, cucumber, and tofu on one end.
4. Sprinkle some chopped green onion on top.
5. Carefully roll the noodle from the filled end to the other end, tucking in the sides as you go to create a sealed roll.
6. Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients.
