- 14 oz (400 g) firm tofu
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (for frying)
- 3 tablespoons honey (or agave syrup for a vegan option)
- 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon ginger powder
- 4 large whole wheat tortillas or wraps
- 1 cup shredded lettuce (e.g., romaine or iceberg)
- 1 medium carrot, julienned
- 1 bell pepper (red or yellow), thinly sliced
- 1 avocado, sliced
- ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional)
- Lime wedges (for serving)
- Start by draining the tofu. Place the tofu block on a plate lined with paper towels and place another plate on top. Let it sit for about 15 minutes to release excess moisture.
- While the tofu is draining, prepare the Sriracha honey sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons of honey, 2 tablespoons of Sriracha, 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon each of garlic powder and ginger powder until smooth. Set aside.
- Once the tofu is drained, cut it into 1-inch cubes. In a mixing bowl, toss the tofu with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of sesame oil until evenly coated.
- Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of cornstarch over the tofu and toss gently to ensure all pieces are coated.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. After about 1 minute, add the tofu cubes, spreading them out in a single layer.
- Fry the tofu for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy on all sides. Remove the tofu from the pan and set aside.
- In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and pour in the prepared Sriracha honey sauce. Let it simmer for about 2 minutes until it thickens slightly.
- Add the crispy tofu back into the skillet and gently toss to coat the tofu evenly in the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through.
- While the tofu is heating, prepare your wraps. Lay out the whole wheat tortillas on a clean surface. On each tortilla, layer a handful of shredded lettuce, some julienned carrots, sliced bell peppers, and avocado.
- Once the tofu is ready, spoon a generous portion over each tortilla and sprinkle with cilantro if desired. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
