Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Press and marinate the tofu

Drain the tofu and press it between two plates with a weight on top for 15 minutes to remove excess liquid. Cut the tofu into 1/2-inch cubes. In a shallow dish, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Add the tofu cubes and gently toss to coat. Marinate for 10 minutes.

2
Prepare the vegetables

Mince the garlic cloves and grate the ginger. Separate the butter lettuce leaves, rinse, and pat them dry. Julienne the carrot and red bell pepper. Thinly slice the scallions.

3
Cook the tofu

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the tofu from the marinade and add it to the skillet. Stir-fry the tofu until it is golden brown and crispy on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

4
Add garlic and ginger

Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet. Stir-fry for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

5
Assemble the lettuce wraps

Place a spoonful of the cooked tofu mixture in the center of each lettuce leaf. Top with julienned carrots, red bell peppers, and sliced scallions.

6
Drizzle with hoisin sauce

Drizzle the hoisin sauce over the top of each lettuce wrap.

7
Serve immediately

Serve the tofu lettuce wraps immediately, allowing diners to wrap them up and enjoy.
