How it's done
Tofu
In a small bowl, mix the tomato puree with all the other ingredients up to and including the pepper. Carefully mix in the tofu, leave to marinate for approx. 30 mins. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan. Fry the tofu in batches for approx. 5 mins. all over. Remove and set aside.
Summer rolls
Dip a sheet of rice paper in warm water for approx. 30 secs. then place on a damp cloth. Place a little of the radish, peppers, strawberries and tomatoes in the middle of the rice sheet along with two tofu sticks, top with herbs. Fold the sides of the rice paper inwards, then roll up tightly from the bottom. Place the summer rolls on a platter, cover with a damp tea towel. Repeat the process with the remaining rice sheets and ingredients.
Tomato dip
Mix the tomatoes, garlic, tomato puree and oil, season. Serve the dip with the summer rolls.
