- 4 store-bought wraps or 2 large wraps
For the “meat”:
- 200 g 7 oz plant-based meat (I used the “pulled meat” from Beanstalk Foods)
- 1 tsp paprika powder
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/4 tsp turmeric
- 1 tbsp olive oil
For the yogurt sauce:
- 1/2 cup 120 ml vegan yogurt (unsweetend, neutral flavor)
- 1/2 cup fresh herbs parsley, cilantro, or mix
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- drizzle of olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
For the filling:
- 1/2 cup red cabbage thinly shaved
- 6 –8 cherry tomatoes halved
- 4 –6 radishes thinly sliced
- 4 pickled jalapenos
- 1 small sweet potato cut into fries and fried (optional)
- Hot sauce to drizzle
Mix paprika, cumin, turmeric, and olive oil with the plant-based meat. Cook in a pan over medium heat for 5–7 minutes until heated through and slightly crispy.
For the herb yogurt sauce, blend vegan yogurt with herbs, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Lay the wraps flat (2 small or 1 large). Spread a generous layer of the herb yogurt sauce.
Add the cooked plant-based meat, drizzle with hot sauce, and layer red cabbage, cherry tomatoes, radishes, pickles, and sweet potato fries. Add extra herb yogurt sauce on top if desired.
Fold or roll the wraps tightly and serve immediately.
