Lay a beancurd sheet flat on a clean surface. Lightly brush the edges with cornflour slurry to help seal.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: Work with one sheet at a time to prevent them from drying out. - 4
Place a generous tablespoon of the meat filling onto the lower third of the beancurd sheet. Fold the bottom edge up over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll tightly to form a sausage shape.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: Ensure the filling is packed snugly to prevent the rolls from falling apart during cooking. - 5
Repeat with the remaining filling and beancurd sheets. You can steam the rolls for 10-15 minutes until firm, or proceed directly to frying.

Heat a generous amount of vegetable oil in a wok or deep pan over medium-high heat. Carefully add the ngoh hiang rolls in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
