Categories     Soy/Tofu

Time 1h

Yield 8 wraps, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

12 ounces extra firm tofu
4 tablespoons brown sugar
4 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
4 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups diced water chestnuts
1 1/3 cups diced mixed mushrooms
1/4 cup diced white onion
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
8 iceberg lettuce leaves
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon spicy mustard, thinned in 1 tablespoon hot water
1 teaspoon minced garlic

Steps:

  • Drain the tofu, and then remove excess moisture by cutting it in half lengthwise and microwaving on high, uncovered, for two minutes. Gently squeeze out and wipe off excess moisture, then throw tofu in the freezer for one or two hours before removing to thaw in the fridge -- this will give the tofu a slightly heavier texture.
  • Cut tofu into tiny cubes (about 1/4" thick) and arrange in a lidded dish to be marinaded. Combine brown sugar, soy sauce and rice vinegar in a small bowl. Pour over tofu. Let sit in the refrigerator for at least an hour; I usually leave it overnight.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add tofu, water chestnuts, mushrooms, onion, and garlic and cook until vegetables are tender.
  • Dissolve 1 Tsp brown sugar in 1 Tsp soy sauce and add to pan. Saute until well mixed and heated through. Spoon mixture into lettuce leaf "bowls".
  • For the sauce, combine sugar, water, soy sauce, rice vinegar, ketchup, lemon juice, sesame oil, mustard and garlic in a bowl; pour over lettuce wraps and serve.

Tofu Lettuce Wraps with Mushrooms Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: water, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, fresh ginger, brown sugar, sriracha, rice wine vinegar, scallions, tofu, sesame oil, medium yellow onion, mushroom, garlic, water chestnuts, scallions, canola oil, rice noodle, iceberg lettuce

Provided by Merle O'Neal

Categories     Lunch

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 cup water
½ cup soy sauce
¼ cup sesame oil
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
¼ cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons sriracha
¼ cup rice wine vinegar
⅓ cup scallions, sliced
14 oz tofu, 1 package
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 medium yellow onion, diced
2 ½ cups mushroom, chopped, such as shiitake
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
8 oz water chestnuts, 1 can, sliced, drained and finely chopped
⅓ cup scallions, sliced
½ cup canola oil
7 oz rice noodle
1 head iceberg lettuce

Steps:

  • Remove the tofu from its packaging and drain. Wrap tofu in a kitchen towel and find a heavy object to place on top of tofu, leave it there for 10-20 minutes, until tofu feels more tender.
  • Make the sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the water, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, sriracha, brown sugar, rice wine vinegar, and scallions, and stir. Set ½ cup (120 ml) of the sauce aside.
  • Crumble the tofu into the marinade, cover, and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • In a medium wok or skillet over medium heat, add the sesame oil and onion, and cook 3 minutes, until onions are translucent. Add the mushrooms and garlic and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender.
  • Add the marinated tofu to the pan and cook until the majority of marinade cooks off. Add the water chestnuts and scallions. Pour in the reserved sauce. Toss to coat and cook until just heated through. Transfer the tofu mixture to a medium bowl.
  • Heat the canola oil in the same pan over high heat until a drop of water sizzles when flicked onto the oil. Fry the rice noodles for about 30 seconds, until puffed up. Transfer the fried noodles to paper towels to drain.
  • Slice the core off the head of lettuce and separate into individual leaves.
  • Serve with leaves of lettuce, rice noodles, and drizzle remaining sauce over top.
  • Enjoy!

Categories     appetizer

Time 20m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 teaspoons peanut oil
1 package firm tofu (12- to 14-ounce size)
1/4 teaspoon chili powder, or more to taste
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 green onions, sliced
2 ears fresh corn, kernels cut off the cobs
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
6 large inner leaves romaine lettuce (from a romaine heart)
2 avocados, sliced

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Throw in the tofu and break it up into very small pieces. Cook until much of the liquid cooks off and the tofu starts to turn golden, for several minutes.
  • Add the chili powder and some salt and pepper, then stir. Throw in the green onions and corn and cook for a few minutes (the corn can remain crunchy). Add the soy sauce and cook until most of the liquid has been absorbed. Turn off the heat and stir in the balsamic vinegar.
  • Pile the mixture into individual romaine lettuce leaves, then add slices of avocado. Fold up and chow down!

Tips:

  • Prep and Cook Smart: Before you start cooking, make sure all your ingredients are prepped and measured. Cook the tofu in advance and store it in the fridge for later use.
  • Choose the Right Lettuce: Use a sturdy lettuce variety like romaine or butterhead lettuce for the wraps. This will help hold the ingredients together better.
  • Pack Them Tight: When assembling the wraps, pack the ingredients tightly to ensure they don't fall apart. You can also secure them with a toothpick if desired.
  • Drizzle & Garnish: Before serving, drizzle the wraps with a flavorful sauce and sprinkle on some fresh herbs or chopped nuts for an extra burst of flavor.

Conclusion:

With these delicious tofu lettuce wraps, you can have a satisfying and nutritious meal in no time. The combination of protein-packed tofu, earthy mushrooms, and fresh lettuce makes it a wholesome and flavorful option.
