How to make Vegan Lettuce Wraps?
First we will prepare the sweet-potato and cauliflower for roasting.
Peel the roast-potat and cut into 2cm chunks. Then cut the cauliflower into bits around precisely the exact same size.
Put them in a large-roasting tin, then coating with the thai flavour mix. This is composed of onion-powder, olive-oil, garlic-powder, red-thai curry-paste, pepper and salt.
Toss the veggies so that they’re well coated, then pop in the oven for half an hour.
Whilst the veggies are roasting you can fry the tofu-crumbles and create the satay-sauce.
To make the peanut-sauce mix together peanut-butter (crunchy or smooth), red-thai curry-paste, coconut-milk, lime-juice and walnut-syrup.
Whisk together till smooth and place aside for later. For your tofu, put oil and soy-sauce (or tamati if Gluten-Free) in a skillet onto medium-high heat.
Crumble the tofu on your hands and to the pan. You wish to use firm tofu to this that it crisps-up nicely. Cook for 5-10minutes before pieces are beginning to go brown and crispy.
Check the veggies, the sweet-potato ought to be tender through and also the cauliflower will be starting to go crispy on the edges.
Mix in with the tofu & you’ve got your filling prepared!
