Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Buckwheat flour
- 1 cup Cooked mashed yam
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Warm water
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 cups Bell peppers (red, yellow, green), sliced
- 1 cup Carrots, julienned
- 1 cup Broccoli florets
- 1 cup Snap peas
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce or tamari (for gluten-free)
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, minced
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine buckwheat flour, mashed yam, and salt. Gradually add warm water, mixing until a pliable dough forms. Adjust water or flour as needed to get the right consistency.
Divide the dough into 6-8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then flatten it into a thin tortilla using a rolling pin. Use parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook each tortilla for 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly browned and cooked through. Cover cooked tortillas with a clean towel to keep warm.
In a large wok or skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic and ginger, stirring until fragrant (about 1 minute).
Add sliced bell peppers, carrots, broccoli florets, and snap peas to the skillet. Stir fry for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Stir in soy sauce or tamari and sesame oil. Toss the vegetables to coat evenly. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat.
To serve, place a warm buckwheat and yam tortilla on a plate. Spoon a generous portion of stir fry vegetables onto the tortilla. Garnish with sesame seeds if desired.
Repeat with remaining tortillas and vegetables. Serve immediately and enjoy!
