Recipe: Tofu Lettuce Wraps - Not PF Chang's

Appetizers and Snacks
I couldn't find the PF Chang's Vegetarian Lettuce Wraps but thought this might give you some ideas for the tofu. I will also post the "meat version" lettuce wrap from PF Changs so you can get the flavorings right.

Tofu Lettuce Wraps

1 head iceberg lettuce or romaine lettuce leaves
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 lb firm Tofu, cut into thin strips
2 scallions, chopped
1 stalk celery, diced
1 can water chestnuts, rinsed and chopped
1 Tbsp minced ginger
1 garlic clove, peeled and minced
1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into strips

1 Tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp dark sesame oil
2 Tbsp vegetarian oyster sauce
1 Tbsp dry sherry
1 tsp sugar
2 tsp cornstarch

Wash lettuce, and dry gently. Separate the leaves. Set aside.

Mix together the sauce ingredients. Set aside.

In a large frying pan over medium heat, put vegetable oil. Add the garlic, ginger, and green onions and fry 1 minute.
