Let's Get Started
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, maple syrup, ketchup, cornstarch, and water to make the sweet and sour sauce.
- Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced tempeh and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes per side.
- Pour the sweet and sour sauce over the tempeh in the skillet. Stir well to coat the tempeh evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the sauce thickens.
- Warm the tortilla wraps in a separate skillet or microwave.
- To assemble the wraps, place a lettuce leaf on each tortilla wrap. Top with the sweet and sour tempeh, sliced bell peppers, red onion, and julienned carrot.
- Fold the sides of the tortilla wraps over the filling, then roll tightly to form a wrap.
- Serve the sweet and sour tempeh wraps immediately and enjoy!
