   • Mash the tofu until smooth.
   • Slice the carrots into thin rounds.
   • Chop the green onions into small pieces.
   • Boil the corn vermicelli according to package instructions, then drain and set aside.

2. Make the Mixture:

   • Grind the garlic and black peppercorns together until finely ground.
   • In a large bowl, combine the mashed tofu with the ground garlic and pepper mixture.
   • Add the sliced carrots, chopped green onions, corn vermicelli, and the two beaten eggs. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
   • Season with salt and any additional seasoning to taste. Mix again and set aside.

3. Prepare the Rolades:

   • Prepare the banana leaves by cleaning and cutting them into pieces large enough to wrap the tofu mixture.
   • Place a portion of the tofu mixture onto a piece of banana leaf. Fold the sides of the leaf over the mixture and roll it tightly. Secure the ends with toothpicks or bamboo skewers.
   • Continue this process until all the mixture is used. You should end up with about 5 rolls, depending on the size.

4. Steam the Rolades:

   • Steam the wrapped rolls for about 20-30 minutes, or until the banana leaves have changed color and the tofu mixture is cooked through. Remove from the steamer and allow to cool.

5. Fry the Rolades:

   • Once cooled, cut the rolls into bite-sized pieces.
   • Dip each piece in the beaten egg and fry in hot oil until golden brown and crispy. This should take about 3-4 minutes per side.
   • Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels.

6. Serve:

   • Serve the crispy Tahu Rolade hot as a delicious appetizer or snack. Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce or a side of fresh vegetables.
