2. 02Sauté mushrooms in 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat for a few minutes until browned.
3. 03Add cabbage, carrots, garlic, and tofu. Cook until half softened, then season with salt and pepper and grate in ginger.
4. 04Stir in soy sauce and sesame oil. Remove from heat, stir in spring onions, and set aside to cool.
5. 05Set up a dipping station with a tray of water and a wet chopping board or damp tea towel.
6. 06Dip a rice paper sheet in water for a few seconds and place on the damp surface. Spoon filling in the center in a rectangle shape.
7. 07Fold the bottom of the sheet over the filling, then fold the top and sides to form a square or rectangle pocket.
8. 08Dip a second rice paper sheet in water, place on the damp surface, and place the pocket in the middle. Wrap the same way by folding bottom first, then top and sides.
9. 09Repeat wrapping until all filling is used.
