    Vegan Rice Paper Rolls with Sriracha & Soy Sauce Tofu and Peanut Sauce

    Vegan Rice Paper Rolls with Sriracha and Soy Sauce Tofu drizzled with Sweet & Spicy Peanut Sauce.

    These Vegan Rice Paper Rolls are filled with flavourful strips of seasoned Sriracha & Soy Sauce tofu, and fresh crispy vegetables. Roll โ€˜em up and dip these vegan summer rolls in sweet and spicy peanut sauce. Eating fresh vegetables has never been this delicious!

    I spent the majority of my early vegetarian years eating a balanced diet of carbs and cheese. My Dad used to joke about me being "the vegetarian who doesn't eat vegetables".

    It wasn't until I began studying cooking in college that I fell in love with vegetables. Why? Because that is when I learned that there are countless amazing ways to prepare vegetables so that they taste not just good, but amazing!

    Still though, I didn't start appreciating raw vegetables (you know, without the pool of ranch dressing) until after I went vegan. One of my tricks to eating mass amounts of fresh vegetables? Baked Sriracha and Soy Sauce Tofu. It pairs SO well with raw vegetables, whether it's salads, vegan lunch bowls, veggie wraps, veggie sandwiches, or fresh spring rolls!

    This is a recipe I come back to over and over again. I LOVE making these Vegan Rice Paper Rolls and serving them with lots and lots of peanut sauce. Theyโ€™re filled with seasoned tofu and thinly-sliced red bell pepper, cucumber, carrot, spinach, and green onion. These vegan summer rolls are simple but oh so delicious.

    Baked Sriracha and Soy Sauce Tofu cut into strips for making Vegan Rice Paper Rolls.

    This is definitely my favourite way to eat vegetables. These vegan rice paper rolls are:

    • high in nutrients (protein and fibre plus tons of vitamins and minerals!)
    • light but super satisfying
    • customizable to your liking
    • a great way to eat tons of fresh produce
    • SO DELICIOUS you won't believe that you're eating mostly raw vegetables!
    • quick to prepare (and easy to make lots at once)
    • great for lunches and make ahead meals
    • very easy to make (after you get the hang rolling the rice wraps themselves!)

    Ingredients prepared for making Vegan Rice Paper Rolls: Fresh vegetables and sliced Sriracha and Soy Sauce Tofu.

    In my Baked Sriracha and Soy Sauce Tofu recipe I recommend cutting a block of tofu into 1"x1" squares, but for this recipe you're going to cut it into ยผ" slices. I usually like to increase the soy sauce and sriracha mixture and baste it on multiple times while the tofu bakes. In this vegan summer roll recipe the strips of seasoned tofu create these amazing pops of flavour throughout the whole roll, so flavourful tofu is a must!

    Until a month ago, I'd never used Vietnamese spring roll wrappers. Have you used them before? They seemed SO weird when I first tried using them! They can be a little tricky to use at first, but you just have to get to know their little quirks, and learn how to work around them. Through trial and error I've learned some valuable tips that should help you get used to using rice wraps ASAP!

    (Edited to add: The tips below is what works best for me, but it's not technically the proper way to hydrate rice papers. Check out the comments for additional tips.)

    My tips for wrapping the spring/crunchy rolls:

    • Check out the comments! The method below works for me, but many readers have suggested better ways to make these!
    • Soak them in HOT water -  The wraps hydrate much faster when you use hot water. I just use tap water turned as hot as possible.
    • Soak them for LONGER than the package indicates -  The directions on my package of rice wraps suggests soaking each wrap for 10 seconds. In my experience, this is nowhere near long enough. I soak mine for AT LEAST 30 seconds. How long you soak your rice wraps will completely depend on the type/brand of rice paper you use. From looking on the internet it seems like most people soak their wraps for 3-5 seconds, but I can't work with mine without soaking them until completely soft and flexible.
    • Lightly shake off the excess water - Before placing them on your work surface
    • Lay hydrated rice wraps on a hard/sturdy surface - I suggest laying them straight onto your counter. I don't recommend using a cutting board or textured surface.
    • Let the wrap sit on your counter for 30 seconds or so before working with it - This helps the wrap absorb the last of the moisture before you start to assemble. The rice wraps WILL NOT stick properly if they're sopping wet. They need to get a little tacky/sticky before you work with them.

    And if that's not enough to make you a pro, I've included a nifty little GIF to show you how I roll mine!

    You can save a lot of time and effort making these Vegan Rice Paper Rolls by using a food processor, vegetable peeler, or vegetable slicer/mandolin, to prepare the vegetables. They usually donโ€™t look quite as pretty but they still taste delicious!

    I hope you love these Vegan Rice Paper Rolls (and peanut sauce!)  as much as I do! Enjoy!

    Description

    These Vegan Rice Paper Rolls are filled with flavourful strips of seasoned Sriracha & Soy Sauce tofu, and fresh crispy vegetables. Roll โ€˜em up and dip these vegan summer rolls in sweet and spicy peanut sauce. Eating fresh vegetables has never been this delicious!


    Ingredients

    Scale

    Fresh Vegetable Crunchy Rolls with Sriracha & Soy Sauce Tofu

    • ยฝ red pepper, julienned
    • 1 large carrot, julienned
    • โ…“ -ยฝ long English cucumber, julienned
    • 3 green onions, thinly sliced on a diagonal
    • small handful of baby spinach, gently bunched up and sliced thinly
    • ยฝ-1 full recipe of Baked Sriracha & Soy Sauce Tofu (optional: double the marinade), chilled and cut into thin strips
    • sesame seeds
    • 6-9ย rice papers (I used 22 cm papers)

    Peanut Sauce:

    • 2 tbsp (30 ml) soy sauce (or Bragg's Liquid Aminos - GF)
    • 3 tbsp (45 ml) peanut butter
    • 1 tbsp (15 ml) sriracha
    • 1 tbsp (15 ml) chili garlic sauce (can substitute with 1 more tablespoon sriracha)
    • 1 tbsp (15 ml) sesame oil
    • 1 tbsp (15 ml) brown sugar (or maple syrup)
    • 1 tbsp (15 ml) sesame seeds
    • 2-3 tbspย (30-45ml) water to thin

    Instructions

    Fresh Vegetable Crunchy Rolls with Sriracha & Soy Sauce Tofu:

    1. While the tofu is baking you can begin to prepare all of your ingredients. Finely julienne the red pepper, carrot, and cucumber (you can use a julienne peeler for the carrot and cucumber as well) I aim for slices between 4-5 inches long (but this depends on the size of your rice paper, mine are about 8" (20 cm).) Thinly slice the spinach and green onion.
    2. Once the tofu has finished baking, place it in the fridge to chill. In the meantime you can mix up the Spicy-Sweet Peanut Sauce (recipe below.)
    3. Cut your chilled tofu into thin strips.
    4. Prep your area. Find a nice clean space of counter to work on and fill a large bowl or pie plate with HOT water. Grab your sesame seeds and all of your prepped veggies.

    Assembly

    1. Soak a single rice paper in the hot water until it's completely soft and flexible. This could take anywhere from a few seconds to more than 30 seconds depending on the brand/type of rice paper. I have best results soaking them for about 30 seconds.
    2. Gently shake the excess water from the rice paper, lay it straight out onto your work space.
    3. Let it sit for about 30 seconds to absorb any excess water, The papers won't stick together properly if they're really wet.
    4. Sprinkle some sesame seeds in the center of the wrap.
    5. Lay the julienned vegetables down in the middle of the wrap. Use approximately โ…• of each ingredients per wrap (use a little more or a little less depening on how many wraps you want to make and how big you'd like them to be.) I like to fill mine with a little bit of spinach, lots of cucumber and carrot, a little red pepper, and lots of tofu topped with a sprinkle of green onion.
    6. Try to keep the fillings laid neatly, making sure to leave ample room on each side to easily fold the wrap.

    Rolling:

    1. Lift the side of the rice paper that's closest to you, gently pull it forward (away from you) over the fillings. Hold the wrap firmly while you fold in each end of the wrap. Continue rolling to seal the seam. Refer to the GIF above for a demo.

    Spicy-Sweet Peanut Sauce:

    1. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and whisk vigorously OR combine all ingredients in food processor and pulse.
    2. Store extra sauce in the fridge. I like to keep mine in a glass salad dressing bottle. It may thicken up when refrigerated, I just run my bottle under hot running tap water until it softens back to a liquid.
    3. Makes approx. ยฝ cup of sauce.

    Notes

    Use a food processor or vegetable slicer/mandolin to make slicing the veggies quick and easy!

      The recipe is a good idea. But there is no quantity of tofu mentioned. No time stated for the baking. Is the tofu supposed to be marinated for a period of time? No mention of that.
      Good recipe. Very poorly presented.
      It's about as organized as a herd of cats.
      Mmmm, I love cats; it's just that I can't eat a whole one....hahahahaha!

      Iโ€™m familiar with this style of recipe. I dinged you one star only, because at your age you guys probably donโ€™t have to think about sodium, but Sriracha and soy sauce and other things like miso are loaded with sodium, so a little sensitivity in your recipes for people who cannot have all the sodium they might want would be appreciated.
      Many older people in North America are best limited to around 1500 mg a day, and that sauce, delicious though it may be, is a sodium bomb.
      Thanks!

      Hello,
      The rice paper linked to in your recipe is out of stock at Amazon. Do you know of an equivalent rice paper that can be used for your recipe? I recently got rice paper from a Chinese food store, to make rice paper bacon. But it is not the 'clingy' kind that your rice paper appears to be, and which seems better to use for this recipe.

      Great recipe but I had to make a quick friendly comment that you should avoid hot tap water for anything but washing. It has a tendency to carry harmful substances for consumption due to lingering in the water system longer than cold water. I use my hot water maker, or you could heat water in a shallow pan! Thanks for reading, looking forward to trying this peanut sauce! ๐Ÿ™‚

      When using spring roll wrappers, two things come to mind.
      1)Use a wet cloth towel, place it on the counter and place the wet spring roll wrapper on top. this will not stick to the countertop.
      2) I found red rose wrappers are the best. It has to say red rose and have a picture of a red rose.

      I'm not much of a Tofu person, but will be using this method of cooking with it more.

      Those wraps were perfect!
      I had one this morning while doing my dinner prep work and though they were nice and light. The peanut sauce completes the wrap... the light wraps are given an extra depth which... they were just fantastic

      Kudos for the recipe, this recipe will be becoming part of my more cooked ones. It perfect for dinner, it's priced well (ingredients wise) and doesn't take much time at all to cook (ignoring the cooling period for the tofu).

      Plus side, I have quite a bit of tofu left over. I made 3 rolls for dinner.

        Hi Tali! They're best enjoyed right away as the papers continue to absorb moisture from the vegetables but I've prepped them up to 2-3 days ahead of time. They just tend to get a little messier to eat as they sit (which isn't a big deal to me.) If you want to prep further ahead than that I'd just prepare all the ingredients and assemble them in rice papers every couple of days. I hope that makes sense?? Let me know if you have any other questions!

        Hi Lindsay! I find they last about 2-3 days. The ingredients will still be good after that but the rice paper continues to absorb moisture so you might prefer the texture when they're freshest. If you want to prep more to last a bit longer I'd just have all the ingredients prepped and roll them in 2 batches (1st day and again on the 3rd day or so - I hope you know what I mean!) To store, I just lay them on a plate and put a sheet of plastic wrap between layers. Let me know if you have any other questions!

      This looks awesome! Thank you for taking the time to document this. Your site is a real inspiration to me. Are these best eaten fresh or do you think they'd be good prepped on Sunday and eaten during the week as lunches?

        Best eaten fresh! I'll often eat them for the next day or 2, but 2 days is the MAX (the rice papers will deteriorate.)

      We made these the other night and they were incredibly delicious! We have four kids and everyone loved them. Two of my kids don't like anything even mildly spicy so we replaced the peanut sauce for a sweet sauce in theirs. Anyway, it's rare that we find a recipe that all six of us love and this was one of them. In fact, I'm making them again tonight for a dinner party.

      I made these today for a Work Christmas party. A little labor intensive. But TOTALLY worth it.

      So. Good. Had never worked with rice paper before, and based on your tutorial I wa sable to execute from the first one. No problems.

      Thank you for all you put into this blog!

        Thank you so so much Jonathan! These are perfect for a Christmas party, nice choice! Do you have a food processor? That can help cut down on prep time if you use it for slicing. And I'm SO glad my tips helps you with rolling the rice papers! ๐Ÿ˜€

      I love your vegetable roll recipe! I really like the idea of using tofu in the roll, and sriracha soy sauce marinade - the best!!. I have a vegetable roll recipe where I use rice paper as well โ€“ man those wrappers can be tricky to work with. I used daikon root along with other vegetables and it was delicious. http://doubletherecipe.com/2016/01/08/vegetable-spring-rolls/

      Thanks for another great post!

      All spring and summer so far have lived on watermelon, and on top of rice cakes: sliced avocado and sliced tomatoes and spicy seasoning salt and pepper and garlic. Really fresh and nice. Sometimes hummus or tofurky sliced meats and pickles, but really just avocado and tomato. oh, and mangoes like they are going out of [email protected]!

      Hi Brittany,

      I just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate the hard work you put into your website, but especially, this recipe! We are slowly changing our diets and adopting vegetarian dishes. The WHOLE family loves these and the kids are always estatic when they see us making these. They even ask for them! Quite something as our 15 year old son is reluctant to give up his carnivore ways!

      Once again, thanks so much for your site! Both my wife and I are regular visitors.

      Good recipe idea, I especially love the tofu preparation. Also, the pictures are awesome ! I would also add some rice vermicelli to make these rolls complete.

      One little sidenote though : that is not how you rehydrate rice papers.
      The right way is to dip each piece of rice paper in water, so that both sides are wet, shake off the excess, move it to a plate (or whatever support you're using) while it's still rigid, let it rest until it finishes rehydrating. You do not leave it to soak in water, because then when it's soft and pliable, you're left dealing with something slippery and hard to work with (as your pictures show).
      Check out this video if you want to see the technique.

        Thanks for the tip Mike! I have so much trouble trying to work with rice papers that way but I'll give it another shot. I'll make sure to add a note in the post. Thanks again ๐Ÿ˜€

          My Mom is Vietnamese & we make rice paper/Spring rolls often & she showed me a little trick. You don't ever soak rice paper. Take 2 pieces of rice paper out of the package, set 1 beside your sink & hold 1 in your hand under a running stream of cold water & take your free hand & as you wet each side (front/back) use your free hand to smooth over the whole rice paper to make sure it's all wet. Then take the other rice paper & place it on top of the already wet 1 & wet the other side under the running faucet. Make sure to even them up & once it's wet hold it over the sink to let the excess water drain then place it on a plastic picnic plate-the kind from the Dollar section/Dollar store that you put a paper plate on. ( A paper plate holder) Set it aside to let the water activate the rice paper & do this process again for however many Spring rolls you are making. You can buy paper rice in circles large or small & in square sizes large or small. So basically, 2 spring roll wrappers wet together equals 1 wrap for 1 Spring roll. Then when it's time to make the Spring Roll, just make it on that plate holder, roll it up & presto you have your Spring roll ready to go. It's easier to wrap this way. Then just start the process all over again & these paper plate holders wash real easy. Then when your paper plate holders are dray, place the stack in a plastic bag & tie the handles & store them in a closet/cabinet until next time. You can wet a whole stack then as they are done, just pile the plates on top of each other & let your guest get a few plates stacked up to let them roll their own. You can stack 4 or 6 plates on top of each other when the rice paper is completely hydrated. Hope this helps.

            Yes, Linda! This is the way we say them made when we visited Vietnam, and now we make them this way all the time. I love the freshness, lightness and deliciousness of this veganized version. They are the perfect summer fare. Thanks to "I Love Vegan" and to Linda, too!!

        The trick to soaking the rice wraps is to use a glass pie plate (stays hot longer) or flat round dish. I have a tea kettle close by to refill the dish as water inevitably cools. Pour boiling hot water in dish, use tongs, I prefer silicone ones, and dip the rice paper in dish and count to 15. Take it out while still little stiff it will keep softening. After water cools, just pour out (recycle) and repeat. This is best way to avoid tearing and burnt finger tips.

        I agree with Mike totally. Hot water and just a quick dip. Another point... the Three Sisters brand is the best for this purpose.
