In contrast to conventional wheat flour, wholemeal spelt flour is generally more crumbly. However, the mixture with spelt flour type 1050 makes it looser.

Stuffed wraps with vegetables – lovely food

It’s so simple, yet just fantastically delicious. Stuffed wraps with vegetables is one of my favorite meals. Delicious whole spelt flour on the outside, while inside it’s so fruity from fresh veggies and perfectly complemented with soy yogurt. Just the creamy substance makes your mouth water. Also get inspired by my filled tortillas with tempeh.

Course main course

Keyword Chickpeas, corn, pointed cabbage, red bell pepper, spring onions, water, Whole spelt flour

Prep Time 30

Cook Time 30

Total Time 1

Servings 2 person

Ingredients

For the wraps

200 g whole spelt flour
1 pinch of salt
100 ml water
flour for rolling

For the filling

1 half pointed cabbage
1 red bell pepper
1 small can of corn
4 – 5 piece of spring onions
1 can of chickpeas

For the sauce

200 g soy yogurt
1 tsp locust bean gum
1 pinch each of curry powder, turmeric powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder and paprika powder

Instructions

Cut vegetables into small pieces. Drain corn and chickpeas.
Mix the soy yogurt with the spices and let it sit for 30 minutes.
Knead the ingredients for the wraps. The dough should be elastic and not too soft. On a baking mat with flour, roll out individual pieces of dough, each the size of the pan.
Heat an enameled frying pan over high heat, then set to medium heat. Fry each patty separately. When bubbles have formed, turn them over. Then roll up while still warm, place on a plate and cover with a wet tea towel until ready to eat.
Carefully roll up the wraps, top with the vegetables, roll up again and heat in the oven for 5 minutes if you like. Then enjoy with the soy yogurt sauce.

Tip

Of course, you can also freeze wraps. But always put a piece of plastic wrap on top and roll them up. Then you can freeze them in a freezer bag or freezer can. If necessary, individual wraps can be taken out.

Interesting to know

You can of course buy wraps, but they contain oil and often other ingredients that are problematic. That’s why I make them myself, like everything else, of course. So filled wraps with vegetables also taste best.
