Directions

Prep 35 minCook 10 min

1
Place the carrot and radish matchsticks in a large lidded glass jar or dish with the rice vinegar, sugar, salt, and hot water. Seal and shake until the sugar dissolves. Set aside to pickle.
2
In a medium bowl, combine the grated lemongrass, one-third of the soy sauce, half of the brown sugar, and sliced bird's eye chili. Whisk until well combined, adding water if needed to adjust the consistency. Set aside.
3
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once shimmering, add the sliced tofu and fry, turning occasionally, until browned, about 4 to 5 minutes.
4
Meanwhile, whisk the remaining soy sauce, sesame oil, and remaining brown sugar together in a small dish.
5
Once the tofu has browned, pour the sauce into the pan and toss with the tofu. Cook until the sauce thickens and caramelizes the tofu, about 2 to 3 minutes.
6
Lay one lettuce leaf face-down on a cutting board. Fill with tofu, pickled vegetables, and fresh chopped cilantro. Roll up the lettuce, tucking in the sides to form a burrito-like wrap.
7
Slice in half and repeat with remaining ingredients. Serve with the dipping sauce.
