Crunchy Dumpling Lettuce Wraps

We've deconstructed the egg roll and put a vegan twist on it. Textured vegetable protein is affordable, very easy to prepare, and soaks up all the delicious flavour from the sauce. Crisp, fresh lettuce is the perfect bed for a tender vegetable sauté, and fried strips of dumplings add the most amazing crunch.

Delicious. Will halve the Sambal oelek next time as it was too spicy for me.

Great, a real keeper. I used ingredients at hand, mushroom instead of the meat replacement and added some roasted peanuts. My family loved it

The photos looked really good, but unfortunately this just wasn't it for me 😔 the dish didn't thicken at all for a long time, so we kept it on the stove for a while, and by then it got super mushy and did not taste good overall 😔 not sure if I did something wrong, but I just wanted to share my experience!

As for the dumpling sticks -- we just popped them in the air fryer after brushing it with some oil and it came out excellent 😊

Hey Preethi, we're really sorry the dish didn’t turn out as expected. Out of curiosity, did you make any substitutions to the recipe? If you used a plant-based option like pre-cooked veggie ground or mock meat instead of TVP, these don’t absorb water in the same way, which could explain the excess liquid. You might find some helpful info on the packaging to see if it suggests adding water for hydration. We've now added a note to the recipe for anyone looking for a TVP alternative. We’re so glad the dumpling sticks worked out in the air fryer though - that’s a fantastic tip 🥰
