Preparation

  1. Combine all of the peanut sauce ingredients in a blender. Process until smooth. Set aside.

  2. Prepare the filling by adding the sesame oil to a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add in the crumbled tempeh and onions and stir to coat with the oil. Cook, stirring frequently, for 7-8 minutes. Stir in the mushrooms and cook for 2-3 more minutes, until the mushrooms are tender. Add in the peanut sauce, stir to combine, and cook for 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat.

  3. To assemble the wraps, layer the lettuce leaves with the rice noodles, tempeh filling, cabbage, carrots, chopped peanuts, green onions, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Drizzle with extra sriracha and enjoy!
