Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 oz extra firm tofu
- 1 cup plain unsweetened non-dairy yogurt
- 1 teaspoon garam masala
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 0.5 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon chili powder
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 pieces whole wheat tortilla
- 4 whole lettuce leaves
- 1 large tomato, sliced
- 0.5 whole cucumber, sliced
- 0.5 whole red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
Press the tofu to remove excess water. Cut into bite-sized cubes.
In a bowl, mix together the non-dairy yogurt, garam masala, cumin, turmeric, coriander, paprika, chili powder, lemon juice, and salt to prepare the marinade.
Add the tofu cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour in the refrigerator.
Preheat a grill pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil.
Once hot, add the marinated tofu cubes. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until the tofu is golden brown and slightly crispy.
Warm the whole wheat tortillas in a skillet or microwave for easier rolling and better texture.
Place a lettuce leaf in the center of each tortilla.
Arrange slices of tomato, cucumber, and red onion on the lettuce.
Add grilled tofu on top of the vegetables, then sprinkle with fresh cilantro.
Roll the tortilla tightly to enclose the filling, folding in the sides as you go to create a wrap.
Secure the wrap with a toothpick if needed, slice in half, and serve immediately.
