These vegan asparagus rice paper parcels<\/strong> are the perfect spring idea: crispy, light, and filled with tender green asparagus, a savoury smoked tofu cream and a sweet mustard dressing \u2014 ready in just minutes from the air fryer or oven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Vegan<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I'll probably make no friends with this opinion here in Germany \u2014 but I prefer green asparagus to white<\/strong>. No peeling, a lovely bite, beautiful colour. Simply better. Now that my preferences are clear, let's get to the more exciting part of this recipe: the \"pastry\".<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

These tasty asparagus parcels aren't made the classic way with puff pastry, but with rice paper. Yes, you read that right! Rice paper isn't only for summer rolls \u2014 prepared correctly, it can imitate baked dough. I was sceptical at first too, and of course it isn't quite the same as a flaky, baked puff pastry. But it's a great alternative: it gets crispy <\/strong>when baked, is much lighter than puff pastry, <\/strong>completely oil-free <\/strong>and gluten-free.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the filling, the green asparagus is paired with a savoury smoked tofu cream<\/strong> \u2014 a plant-based homage to asparagus wrapped in ham, I guess? Add a sweet mustard dressing <\/strong>for that special finishing touch. The result: a light, elegant starter or side that tastes like spring.<\/p>\n\n\n[feast_advanced_jump_to]\n\n\n
