Are you looking for really filling vegetarian Asian wraps? then stop your search. These crunchy and crispy tofu wrappers provide a double veggie punch on a soft tofu background. Tofu provides a substantial boost of protein to prevent you from nibbling in between meals. And the mouthwatering peanut sauce unites all of those vibrant flavours. It's a terrific way to make a completely vegetarian supper that is both pleasant and substantial.
Because the vegetables in this recipe are so robust, they last for several days in the refrigerator. For around 4 days, both the cooked tofu and the peanut sauce are still tasty. Once all of those components have been prepared, all that's left to do is roll them all up in a tortilla and eat them.
Here is how you can make these yummy wraps at home.
Ingredients:
• 1 pack of firm tofu (water drained)
• 2 cups shredded green cabbage
• 1/2 teaspoon grated garlic
• 1/4 cup tamari (substitute: soy sauce)
• 1/2 teaspoon grated ginger
• 1–2 teaspoons olive oil (substitute any oil of your choice)
• 2 cups shredded purple cabbage
• 1 cup thinly sliced red pepper
• 1 cup shredded carrots
• 4–6 large tortillas or rotis
• 1/3 cup cilantro leaves
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 cup chow mein noodles
• 1/3 cup sliced green onion
For the peanut sauce:
• 1/2 cup peanut butter
• 1 teaspoon grated ginger
• 1 teaspoon tamari
• 1 pinch of salt
• 1 teaspoon grated garlic
• 1/2 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
• 1/2 cup water plus 1 tablespoon
• 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1/2 teaspoon maple syrup (substitute: honey)
Method:
• Tofu should be thinly sliced into strips around the size of your thumb.
• In a medium bowl or plastic bag, combine the tamari, water, grated ginger, and garlic.
• The tofu should then be added and thoroughly covered with the marinade. Give the tofu 15 to 30 minutes to sit.
• Tofu and olive oil are added to a big pan that's been heated to medium heat.
• You can drizzle some of the marinade over it if you'd like.
• Cook the tofu for 10 to 12 minutes, or until each side is browned and crispy.
• After adding the vegetables, mix everything together in a big bowl.
• To make the dressing, put all the ingredients in a jar or small bowl.
• Before building, you might wish to warm up your wraps a little bit if they aren't particularly flexible.
• Add roughly 2 tablespoons of chow mein noodles, 3–4 tofu strips, a sizable handful of the veggie mixture, and one wrap at a time.
• Add the desired amount of peanut sauce, then fold up your wrap and eat it.
