200g Fresh tofu
½ Heart cabbage
1 Small onion
1 Garlic clove

1 tsp brown sugar
¼ tsp mustard seeds
1 tsp chopped parsley
4 tsp Brown sauce
4 tsp tomato ketchup
5 tsp Soy sauce
5 tsp olive oil

  • Place wraps in the oven at 200 degrees Celsius for about 4 minutes.
  • Stir fry tofu cubes with marinate sauce, stir gently for 2 minutes on high heat.
  • Chop cabbage into fine strips and leave to one side.
  • Remove wraps from heat.
  • Drizzle 1 tsp of tomato ketchup and 1 tsp in middle of each wrap.
  • Add 1 table spoon finely chopped cabbage on top of wrap, then 1 table spoon of stir fry cubes and drizzle of ¼ lime juice.
  • Wrap into a roll gently and tightly.  Repeat with remaining wraps.
  • Ready to serve.
Tofu can be bland when cooked on its own, but as in this vegan recipe, it is an ideal ingredient to absorb all the other strong flavours.  This ingredient is an excellent source of Soy protein and it is very easy to cook.  Also contains essential minerals like calcium and magnesium, promoting healthy bones.

Heart cabbage is tender and in its raw stage, adds the crunch bite to heat of chili and brown sauce.  The lime adds a zingy flavour through the sweet tomato sauce.
