What you need
Quantities for 2 servings
| Firm tofu | 300 g |
|---|---|
| Butter or oakleaf lettuce leaves | 8 leaves |
| Carrot | 50 g |
| Spring onion | 1 stalk |
| Minced ginger | 1 tsp |
| Soy sauce | 1 1/2 tbsp |
| Sugar | 1/2 tsp |
| Water | 1 tbsp |
| Cooking oil | 1 tbsp |
| Black pepper | a pinch |
How to make it
- Press the tofu dry with paper towels and cut it into cubes about 1 cm wide.
- Wash the carrot and mince it finely. Wash the spring onion and slice it thin.
- Stir the soy sauce, sugar and water together in a small bowl for the sauce.
- Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Spread the tofu in a single layer and leave it alone until the underside is golden, then flip it. This takes about 5 minutes.
- Add the ginger and carrot and stir-fry for about 1 minute.
- Pour in the sauce and toss until it has almost cooked down. Sprinkle on the spring onion and black pepper, then turn off the heat.
- Wash and drain the lettuce leaves. Spoon some tofu into the middle of a leaf, wrap it up and eat it warm.

Tips
- Press the tofu dry first. It spatters less in the pan and browns more easily.
- Drain the leaves before wrapping so the sauce does not soften them.
- Freshly cooked tofu is very hot. Let it sit for a minute before wrapping so the leaves hold up better.
