Prepare the Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the tofu, egg, shredded straw mushrooms, chopped chilies, minced shallots, minced garlic, cooking oil, salt, sugar, seasoning, and chopped green onions. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
-
Wrap the Mixture: Take banana leaves and use them to wrap the mixture securely, then fasten the wraps with toothpicks to ensure they hold their shape.
-
Cook the Pepes: Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add a small amount of oil. Place the wrapped pepes in the pan, making sure to turn them occasionally to prevent burning. Cover the pan with a lid and cook until the banana leaves are dry and no moisture seeps out of the wraps.
