wrap

Wrap is a thin, round flatbread made from flour, designed to envelop any filling of your choice. Popular options include chicken, tuna, or tofu wraps. These filled wraps make for a great lunch, dinner, or a substantial snack anytime during the day. You can also conveniently take them with you to university, work, or on the go.

How to prepare a wrap?

What to fill your wrap with? The choice is entirely yours and limited only by your imagination. It’s ideal to use a protein-rich base, such as a blend of ground meat, shredded chicken, or tuna. To prepare a veggie wrap, use tofu, seitan, or tempeh instead. Then, simply incorporate your favourite vegetables, dressing, and voilà, you have a nutritious meal ready to be served.

You can also fill it with scrambled eggs, ham, and cheese for an unconventional breakfast wrap. However, if you’re looking for a quick snack during the day, you can try the folded tortilla wrap, also known as a pizza wrap. Just spread it with tomato sauce and add cheese, ham, and other vegetables according to your taste. Then fold it and cook on a pan. This folded and healthy wrap makes for a delightful breakfast or a swift dinner option.

How to fold a wrap?

You can fold wraps in several ways, but for most recipes, the following method will suffice. Place the wrap on a work surface, spread it with sauce, and arrange the filling in a narrow strip on the bottom half. Then fold the side edges so that they almost touch, but the filling is still visible between them. Hold the side corners with your fingers and pull the bottom edge over them. Continue rolling towards the upper empty part of the wrap. You can then take this wrap with you wherever you go.

What’s the difference between a wrap and a tortilla?

A tortilla is a thin, unleavened flatbread typically made from flour and water. In contrast, wrap dough often incorporates yeast and occasionally spices. Both types of flatbreads lend themselves to filling or grilling, so opt for the one that complements your dish the best.
