Method

01

Prepare the satay sauce by whisking together the peanut butter, soy sauce, maple syrup, lime juice, and sriracha in a small bowl until completely smooth.

2m
02

Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the cubed tofu and pan-fry for 5 to 7 minutes, tossing occasionally, until golden and crispy on most sides. Reduce heat to low, pour in the satay sauce, and stir continuously for 1 minute until the tofu is thickly coated and sticky. Remove from heat.

8mLook for: Tofu edges are golden brown and sauce is reduced and clinging tightly to the cubes
03

Halve and pit the avocados, then scoop the flesh into a medium mixing bowl. Lightly mash with a fork, retaining some chunky texture. Gently fold in the quartered cherry tomatoes, sliced olives, diced red onion, lemon juice, parsley, and salt.

5mFeel: Avocado is crushed but still has distinct chunks
04

Warm the pre-cooked falafels in a clean pan over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, or microwave for 60 seconds until heated through. In a separate small bowl, whisk the tahini and lemon juice with 10ml of warm water until a drizzleable dressing forms.

4m
05

Assemble the Mediterranean wraps: Lay two tortillas flat. Spoon the smashed avocado mixture evenly down the center of each, leaving room at the edges for rolling.

1m
06

Assemble the Falafel wraps: Lay two tortillas flat. Spread hummus down the center, top with mixed greens and cucumber slices. Arrange 4 warm falafels on each wrap and drizzle generously with the tahini dressing.

2m
07

Assemble the Satay Tofu wraps: Lay the final two tortillas flat. Distribute the shredded carrots and fresh cilantro down the center, then top with the warm, sticky satay tofu.

2m
08

Fold the left and right sides of each wrap inward by about 2 inches, then tightly roll from the bottom up to enclose the fillings completely. Slice each wrap in half diagonally and serve immediately.

Chef's Notes

  • Pressing firm tofu is crucial for a great crust. Wrap the block in paper towels and place a heavy pan on top for 15 minutes before cubing.
  • For meal prep, you can make the satay tofu and the falafel salad elements up to 3 days in advance. Keep the wet ingredients like hummus and dressings separate from the wraps until right before eating.
  • If your avocado mixture starts to brown, an extra squeeze of fresh lemon juice and tightly pressing plastic wrap directly against the surface can slow oxidation.

Storage

Refrigerator: 3 daysStore fillings separately from the wraps to prevent sogginess. Avocado filling is best consumed within 24 hours to avoid browning.
