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.
