Recipe: Fried Beancurd Roll (Dim Sum)

These ๐…๐ซ๐ข๐ž๐ ๐๐ž๐š๐ง๐œ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ ๐‘๐จ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฌ are something we always order at the dim sum restaurant. Tried my hand at making them at home last weekend in the air fryer and they turned out amazing! The filling is a mix of store bought fish paste, chopped prawns and chives. If you don’t have an air fryer, you can shallow fry them in oil (180°C) for a few mins until golden.

Recipe by Baby Sumo
Preparation time: 20-30 mins
Cooking time: 20 mins
Makes 7-8

Ingredients
18g beancurd sheet, cut into 15x15cm sheets (7-8 pcs)
Cooking spray

For the filling
200g premium fish paste
10g chives
4 peeled prawns

For the glue
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 tbsp water

For the mayo dipping sauce
1 tbsp mayonnaise
1 tbsp evaporated creamer
1 tsp honey


1. In a bowl, mix the ingredients for the filling. Then, slap the ingredients into the bowl for about 5 mins, until the filling is sticky and bouncy.

2. Make the glue by mixing the ingredients together. Set aside.

3. Place one beancurd sheet on a flat surface. Using a damp cloth, wipe the beancurd sheet on both sides (wipe at least 2-3 times to remove excess salt. Wiping it will also make it more pliable). Place about one tablespoonful of filling onto the sheet, about 1 cm from the sides and 2cm from bottom. Fold the bottom upwards. Using your fingers, apply glue around the edges and then fold to form a parcel. (watch video here to learn how to fold the rolls). Repeat for other sheets until filling is used up.

4. Spray air fryer with some cooking spray. Place beancurd rolls in a single layer in air fryer, then spray again with more cooking spray. Cook in air fryer at 180°C for 20 mins until beancurd is crispy.

5. Meanwhile, place all ingredients for dipping sauce in a bowl and mix well.

6. Serve the beancurd rolls hot with the mayo dipping sauce. We usually cut each roll into half with scissors.

Tip: Make sure to wipe the beancurd sheets a few times to remove excess salt from the sheets, otherwise it will be very salty.
