Tempting Thai Wraps

If there is one thing that I love more than Italian food, it's basically anything asian, Though I am more fond of Vietnamese flavors, Thai is a close second. These wraps are quick, easy and satisfying.




Peanut Sauce
  • 1 can of coconut milk
  • 1c peanut/almond butter
  • 2 TB fish sauce/soy sauce (optional)
  • red pepper flakes, to taste
  1. Heat coconut milk over medium heat until uniform then add red pepper flakes and heat for 2 minutes.
  2. Add peanut butter and stir until smooth then add fish sauce. 
  3. Continue to heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 15 minutes, stir then enjoy.
Filling
  • 1 package of firm tofu
  • shredded cabbage
  • shredded carrots
  • bean sprouts
  • diced scallions
  • thai basil
  • wraps
  1. Cut tofu into 1cm x 1cm strips and place into a 350 degree over for 30-40minutes until golden brown around the edges. Remove from pan and set aside. 
  2.  place veggies and herbs in wrap, lay tofu across and top with peanut sauce. Roll up and enjoy!
 Note: Another option is to lightly marinate the cabbage in fish sauce if you like a little bit more salt.
