firecracker vegan lettuce wraps
These lettuce wraps are a huge deal, as a) they flavor, of course, aaaamazing( and b) they're lettuce wraps that understand how to really keep you complete. That is appropriate. I stated ACTUALLY KEEP YOU FULL. None of the small business that is two-tablespoons-of-ground-chicken-in-a-lettuce-leaf-counting-as-a-meal. I really like lettuce wraps. In addition, I like being full after a meal, and it's tough to discover. Input this mashup that is yummy.
I am a supporter of whatever involves bringing it from plate and wrapping up an stir fry that are important. Yes, these are my thing of this moment.

DESCRIPTION
HELLO YUM. Firecracker Lettuce Wraps which are vegetarian -- using a sour sauce, rice noodles that are saucy, along with lettuce bits.
INGREDIENTS
For your Firecracker Sauce:
- 1/4 cup corn syrup
- 2 tbsp chili paste (such as sambal oelek) ++ to get more firecrackery-ness
- 2 tbsp sugar
- A knob of fresh ginger
- A clove of garlic, peeled
- For your Lettuce Wraps:
- 4 oz rice noodles that are brown
- For wrapping Lettuce leaves
- For serving, peanuts lime
INSTRUCTIONS
- Your noodles: Drink in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes. You would like the noodles to be more flexible and soft.
- Sauce: Combine of the sauce ingredients together until creamy and smooth.
- Tofu: Press the tofu with a couple of paper towels to receive out a few of their moisture. Cut the tofu. Insert your own tofu. Stir-fry until gold brown. I let it sauté for 15 minutes. Add about half of this sauce. Round the tofu, it is going to form crispy bits that are little as the sauce stinks. Yum! Transfer tofu into a bowl.
- Noodles: Drain and wash your noodles. Insert another spoonful of oil and then plop the noodles in. Add about half the remaining sauce. Stir fry until coated for a moment or two. If it is too tacky add a dash of water. Remove from heat and toss together with the tofu.
- Lettuce Wrap It Up: Combine out your butter lettuce leaves together with the noodle/tofu mix (it is okay if it is tacky -- you are simply wrap it up in lettuce). Top with carrots, cashews, cilantro, scallions, lime, or Sriracha if you would like.
NOTES
- Protein Choices: It is super simple to swap out your protein .
- Soaking the Noodles. They'll require more liquid from the pan to cook which sort of makes them boil into a glob if you do not soak the noodles. Edible? Yes. Great? Not really. Make sure you soak them till they're very soft ready to eat tender.
