Tofu Lettuce Wraps

Posted July 26th, 2010

from vegweb.com

Ingredients:

  • 1 head lettuce or Napa cabbage
  • 1 pkg extra firm tofu (drained)
  • 2 1/2 cups chopped shittake mushrooms
  • 3 tablespoons chopped garlic (fresh)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped ginger (fresh)
  • red pepper flakes
  • tamari or soy sauce or Braggs
  • salt
  • pepper

Directions:

  • Dice the tofu into small bite size squares.  Spread them out on a cookie sheet.  Sprinkle with salt , pepper, red pepper flakes, and soy sauce.  Bake for 35-45 minutes at 350.
  • When that is almost done, heat up wok or frying pan and throw in the chopped up garlic and ginger.  Fry for about 5-7 minutes until they are softer.  Throw in the shittakes.  At this time you can add more soy sauce, usually about 4 or 5 shakes.  Also, if you’d like, some more salt and pepper and red pepper flakes.
  • Cook about another 10 -12 minutes, then add the tofu and finish up the cooking – about 2-5 minutes.
  • Wash and dry the lettuce/cabbage and pull off pieces about the size of your palm.
  • Spoon the mixture into the leafs and roll them up!!
