What you will need
This recipe uses 6 simple ingredients that you can find at any grocery store:
- 14 oz extra-firm tofu pressed and cubed
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 3 whole large flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cabbage
- 2 tbsp sriracha mayo
Step by step instructions
Step 1: Pan-Fry the Tofu
Heat sesame oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add cubed tofu in a single layer and cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side until golden and crispy on the outside.
Step 2: Season the Tofu
Drizzle soy sauce over the crispy tofu and toss to coat. Cook for an additional 1 minute until the soy sauce is absorbed and caramelized.
Step 3: Warm the Tortillas
Microwave the flour tortillas for 20 to 30 seconds wrapped in a damp paper towel until soft and pliable.
Step 4: Assemble the Wraps
Lay out each tortilla and spread sriracha mayo down the center. Top with shredded cabbage and crispy tofu then roll tightly and slice in half to serve.

- sriracha mayo → tahini sauce for a milder nuttier flavor

Common mistakes to avoid
Watch out for these pitfalls that can affect your results:
- Not pressing tofu before cooking which causes steaming instead of crisping
- Overcrowding the pan which prevents the tofu from browning evenly
