Instructions
Peanut Sauce:
Combine all the peanut sauce ingredients. Then, bring the mixture to a boil and reduce to a simmer until thickened while stirring once in a while.
Once thickened, transfer to a bowl and set aside.
Filling:
Cook the filling by adding the oil to a heated skillet. Then, sauté minced garlic and chopped sweet onions for 60 seconds on medium-low heat.
Add the firm tofu and cook until browned. Then, add the sweet potatoes and pour in the water or vegetable broth.
Bring the mixture to a boil and reduce to a simmer for 5 minutes.
Add the shredded cabbage, jicama, carrots, and green beans, and stir fry for another 3 minutes while mixing constantly.
Add a splash of vegan fish sauce. Then, season with salt and ground black pepper, to taste.
Transfer to a serving bowl and set aside.
Wrap:
Place all the wrap ingredients (except the butter) in a mixing bowl. Then, whisk together until fully incorporated.
Add the butter to a skillet. Then, scoop and pour half a cup of the mixture into the hot pan.
Swirl until it covers all the surfaces of the pan. Cook until the top becomes dry before flipping.
Cook for another minute and remove from the skillet. Repeat the process with the remaining wrap batter.
To assemble, place the romaine lettuce leaf in the center of each wrap. Then, add in a couple of tablespoons of the filling and wrap or fold.
Drizzle with the peanut sauce. Then, serve immediately.
