  • 2 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbs corn flour

  • 1 tbs olive oil (extra)

Instructions
 

  • Remove the pastry from the freezer to defrost (cover with a damp teatowel to prevent drying out).

  • Heat 2 tsp olive oil in a frying pan and add the vegetables and tofu, fry over a medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring.
  • Remove from the heat and add the drained rice vermicelli and soy sauce, stir until well combined.
  • Make a paste with the cornflour and water in a small dish.
  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
  • Slice the defrosted pastry sheets in half diagonally.
  • Rotate the triangle so the tip is pointing towards you.
  • Place about 1 tbsp of the rice & vegetable filling about ⅓ from the top.
  • Fold the long edge over the filling.
  • Roll it down once more.
  • Fold the sides over the filling.
  • Roll it up, and seal the edge with the cornflour paste.
  • Place on a greased baking tray and repeat until you have no more filling or pastry left.
  • Baste with the extra 1 tbsp olive oil and bake in the oven for 10 minutes.
  • Remove, flip the spring rolls and baste with olive oil again, and bake for a further 15 minutes.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

If you have leftover filling, it is great to eat as-is.
Serve the spring rolls with dipping sauce - sweet chilli sauce is our favourite!
