Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar or other vinegar
1 tablespoon red wine or dry sherry
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon cornstarch
16 medium to large Chinese or Japanese dried mushrooms, about 2 inches in diameter, soaked in warm water until softened, about 45 minutes
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 celery stalks, strings removed with a vegetable peeler, finely diced to make 1 cup
3 carrots, peeled and finely diced to make 1 cup
4 scallions, white and green parts, trimmed and minced to make 3/4 cup
2 ounces firm tofu, finely diced
1 teaspoon dark sesame oil
2 to 3 tablespoons lightly toasted pine nuts
8 to 12 whole bibb, Boston or iceberg lettuce leaves
Hoisin sauce as needed

Steps:

  • For the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, vinegar, wine, sugar and pepper. In another small bowl, stir together the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water. Set bowls aside.
  • For the filling: Drain mushrooms, trim tough stalks and finely dice mushrooms; there should be about 1 1/2 cups. Place a large wok over high heat and add oil. When oil is hot, add mushrooms, celery, carrots and scallions. Stir-fry until celery and carrots are crisp-tender, about 45 seconds. Add soy sauce mixture and stir for 20 seconds. Add cornstarch mixture and stir until thickened, about 30 seconds.
  • Add tofu and toss gently, being careful not to break up tofu. Add sesame oil and toss again. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with pine nuts.
  • To serve, place bowl of mushroom filling alongside a platter of lettuce leaves and a small bowl of hoisin sauce. Spread about 1/4 teaspoon hoisin sauce in center of each lettuce leaf and add 2 tablespoons of mushroom mixture. Roll up leaf and eat with your fingers.

Tips:

  • Choose the right lettuce: Choose large, sturdy lettuce leaves that can hold the filling without wilting. Boston lettuce, butterhead lettuce, and romaine lettuce are all good options.
  • Prepare the lettuce leaves: Wash and dry the lettuce leaves thoroughly. If the leaves are too large, you can cut them in half or into quarters.
  • Make the filling ahead of time: The turkey-shiitake filling can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 3 days. This makes it a great option for meal prep.
  • Assemble the wraps just before serving: The lettuce wraps are best served fresh. Assemble them just before serving to prevent the lettuce from wilting.
  • Get creative with the toppings: You can top the lettuce wraps with a variety of toppings, such as shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, chopped cilantro, or crumbled bacon.

Conclusion:

Turkey lettuce wraps with shiitake mushrooms are a healthy and delicious meal that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect lettuce wraps every time.
