-
Chop the garlic and the cabbage, grate the carrots.
-
Tear the Tofu into bite-sized pieces.
-
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add the garlic. Sauté briefly until fragrant.

Add the grated carrots to the pan. If the mixture starts sticking (since this is zero-oil), add a splash of water. Cook until lightly softened but still slightly crunchy.

Add the chopped cabbage and cook briefly until slightly tender.

Add the shredded tofu and cook until most of the water evaporates, stirring occasionally.
-
Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, sesame paste slurry, and soy sauce. Cook until well combined and mostly dry.
-
Remove from heat and stir in fresh Thai basil. Let the filling cool slightly.
-
Soak the rice papers in lukewarm water until pliable.
-
Assemble the rolls: Place some filling on the rice paper and roll it tightly into a neat roll. Repeat for all remaining rice papers. This recipe makes about 12–14 rolls.

Serve with my almond hemp sriracha sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.
