Step 3: Fold up to encase the filling and fold in the sides. Seal the end with corn starch water.

Tip: While wrapping a roll, cover the remaining bean curd sheets with a clean damp towel to make them remain pliable than turning brittle (don’t wet the cloth too much, or the sheets will turn soggy)

 

Step 4: Preheat the air fryer, fry 4-5 minutes with 180°C (both sides) or until the bean curd roll turns into golden brown . You may pan fry or deep fry it too.

 

The filling look a bit too loose. Get you a useful tip when wrapping the filling:

After folding in the two sides, squeeze it back towards yourself then roll forwards until the end. This can keep the roll tighter.
