Ingredients

1 tbsp - avocado oil
14 ounces - extra firm tofu
8 ounces - coleslaw mix
4 ounces - mushrooms
3 - green onions
2 cloves - garlic
1 tsp - fresh ginger
1 tbsp - tamari sauce
1 tsp - sesame oil
16 pieces - rice paper
Sesame seeds to top

Instructions

Press the tofu and prepare the vegetables. Warm a tablespoon of avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add tofu and veggies and sauté until slightly softened. Stir in tamari sauce and sesame oil then remove from heat.
Make a dipping station with cold water and a damp plate or cutting board to wrap the dumplings on.
Working one at a time, dip each rice paper wrapper into the cold water for a few seconds to soften then place on your work surface.
Place a heaping tablespoon of the mixture in the middle of the rice paper. Fold the bottom half up to cover the filling, bring in the sides, then fold the top over to seal. Repeat with a second sheet of rice paper to double wrap.
Coat with cooking spray and top with sesame seeds. Air fry at 380F for 10-12 minutes, flipping once halfway through. Dumplings are done when they are brown and crispy!
Remove from air fry, let cool slightly, then serve with dipping sauce of choice.
