To make rolls, spread about 2 heaping tablespoonfuls of filling diagonally across a bean curd sheet. Keep remaining sheets covered to prevent drying. Fold bottom corner over filling to cover, then fold over right & left corners. Roll over once to enclose filling. Brush sides & top of triangle with flour & water mixture. Fold over to seal. Cover filled rolls with a damp cloth while preparing the rest of the rolls. Place a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add 1 to 2 tb oil. Add rolls two at a time & cook for 2 minutes on each side, or till golden brown. Transfer to a heat proof dish & keep warm in a 200F oven while cooking remaining rolls. To serve, cut each roll into thirds.
