- Methods
-
- Soak and cover mushrooms in water for 30 minutes and drain.
- Cut off and discard stems and slice mushroom caps thinly. Set mushroom aside.
- Place a wok over medium-high heat until hot. Add oil, swirling it to coat the sides of the wok.
- Add garlic into the wok, stirring it until fragrant.
- Add the carrots and stir-fry for about 2 minutes or until carrots are crisp-tender.
- Add mushrooms, bamboo shoots, green onions, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, wine and sesame oil.
- Stir-fry for 2 minutes until well mixed. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Soak and cover bean curd sheets in water for 3 to 4 minutes or until softened and drain.
- To fill each bean curd sheet, spread about 1 heaping tablespoon of filling on one sheet.
- Fold the bean curd sheet into several layers to create the texture of "vegetarian chicken meat". Keep remaining sheets covered to prevent drying.
- Brush sides and top of triangle with flour paste. Fold over to seal.
- Place a non-stick frying pan over high heat. Pour oil to a depth of 1 inch and heat over medium-high heat until hot, but not smoking.
- Add bean curd rolls to the frying pan, two at a time, and cook for 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
- Transfer the bean curd skin rolls to a heatproof dish and keep warm in a 90°C oven while cooking the remaining rolls.
