Vegan Thai Lettuce Cups with “Waterfall” Sauce
It all started with a sauce, or should I say, the memory of a sauce… I recently had a craving for a Thai dish that I haven’t had since going vegan. I’m being generous when I say that I was craving the “dish”, because in actuality, the sauce is the only thing that has stuck in my mind. It’s bright and herbaceous and spicy and funky. With my flavor memory, and the help of Google, I’m pretty sure I’ve been able to approximate the sauce enough to satisfy my palate for whenever I get that craving again. As I vehicle for the sauce, I have also created an easy mushroom and tofu filling for making lettuce wraps. Sub out the mushrooms and tofu for other veggies or proteins of your choice, or serve over rice, if you’re wanting a dish that’s a bit more hearty.
