- Asian Inspired Tortilla Wraps -

First time making an Asian inspired tortilla wrap. And it was a success! Its slightly spicy and slightly cheesy, sounds a bit strange I know but so good! It’s inspired from the spicy cheese duboki, which I was really reluctant to try at first because the combination seemed a bit strange. But it wasn’t!

Taking from this, I made a cabbage, onion, and tofu stir fry mixed with kimhci, spinach and carrot. For the sauce, I decided to take inspiration from sour cream so I decided to make a vegan cashew cream cheese sauce! It contains onion, garlic and nutritional yeast to give it that slightly cheesy taste.

I heated the tortilla wrap up first, filled it with the filling, placed some alfalfa sprouts on top, and then the vegan cashew sauce. To seal up the edges of the wrap, I placed the open edges face down on the pan and flattened it with a spatula. This last step is crucial as it makes the wrap nice and crispy. Which gives it a really nice contrast between the crispy wrap and the filling. It’s so good, slightly spicy and slightly cheese. Amazing.
