Red Lentil Hummus Wraps with Aloo Gobi & Pickled Onions
Time for an additional delicious vegan wrap crammed with a classic Indian dish – Aloo Gobi.
Should you don’t prefer to eat an enormous Indian meal, all unfolded on one big plate with a flatbread, breaking a flatbread into pieces using your hand. picking up the dry veggie side with the flatbread and dipping it within the lentil dal or other soups/stews etc. Well, then you definately can put every little thing right into a wrap 🙂
This vegan hummus wrap. Make it! It’s crammed with my Dad’s delicious Gobi Aloo Mutter (Indian Cauliflower Potato Stir-fry), some thick red lentil hummus – Masoor Dal, fresh cilantro and pickled onions.
Serve with some cilantro chutney or Sriracha. Every little thing that may go on a Thali(plate), can go into this hummus wrap! I used red/pink/orange lentils for this hummus wrap since they cook really quickly.
You should utilize any lentil or bean really. Just add some spices, cook and mash them up and use as a hummus base. Any Indian spiced Daal cooked with less water may be made into hummus. We must always all eat more lentils:)

Ingredients needed for making Vegan Aloo Gobi & Lentil Hummus Wraps:
- Red lentils: I used red/pink/orange lentils for this hummus wrap since they cook really quickly. You’ll be able to use any lentil or bean really. Just add some spices, cook and mash them up and use as a hummus base. Any Indian spiced Daal cooked with less water may be made into hummus.
- As for seasoning, I used ground cumin, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder to lend an Indian touch to my hummus.
- Aloo Gobi: I make these wraps at any time when I even have leftover Aloo Gobi and I like to recommend you do the identical! Should you will not be a fan of the cauliflower potato combo, I listed a bunch of alternatives for you right above the recipe card.
- Tortillas – regular medium or large wheat tortillas or gluten-free ones. Be certain that you warm them as much as make rolling easier.
- Pickled onions: Make them yourself following my instructions below. You’ll be able to add raw, thinly sliced onions as a shortcut. Or use spring onions.
Suggestions and Substitutions:
- The recipe makes enough filling for 2 wraps, but can easily be doubled.
- These may be made gluten-free with gluten-free tortillas. To make these grain-free, you may also forego the tortilla wraps by serving this all up in a bowl. Lettuce wraps can be one other great low cal alternative.
- You could possibly also use the filling to make vegan tacos. Put all fillings in separate bowls and let everyone assemble their tacos themselves.
- Be at liberty so as to add other crunchy veggies like red bell pepper, celery, carrots, kale, or lettuce.
The best way to Make Vegan Aloo Gobi & Red Lentil Hummus Wraps:
Make the red lentil hummus:
Add a teaspoon of oil in a deep pan and warmth on medium. Toast the washed lentils for about 2 minutes.
Add water, spices, tomatoes and cook the lentils until tender.
The lentils must be all done after 10 minutes.
Mash them up a bit to make them easy to spread. Taste and adjust salt and spice to your taste.
Assemble the wrap:
Spread the red lentil hummus on a warm tortilla. with some extra lentils in the center.
Top with cauliflower potato stir fry, pickled onions, and cilantro.
Wrap the tortilla up using your fingers to softly tuck within the ingredients, so that they stay contained in the tortilla. Be certain that your tortillas are nice and soft, so that they don’t crack whilst you roll them. Cut them and serve with hot sauce.
Serve with some cilantro chutney or Sriracha. Every little thing that may go on a Thali(plate), can go into this hummus wrap!
The best way to make Quick Pickled Onions:
To make Picked Onions, soak the sliced red onion in enough vinegar. Add a generous dash of salt, sugar and chili powder. Mix, cover and let sit for a couple of hours and use.
I normally store mine within the refrigerator for a couple of days and use them as needed.
CAN THESE WRAPS BE MADE AHEAD OF TIME?
Yes! That is an important recipe for meal prepping. Prepare the hummus and aloo gobi the night and even days before. Slice up your other fillings and have this wrap ready for lunch very quickly!

~Its my Brain to blog Wednesday~
Addressing some Often discussed topics as an element of Vegan Month of food. There may be quite a bit greater than may be added to every of those answers, but I attempt to keep it short. 🙂 Also, please imagine the answers being given with a smile in a pleasant tone. It’s difficult to project that tone in a written medium. Thats how hubbs all the time is during verbal discussions, calm, collected, and full of data. And that I learn from him on daily basis.
Soy is super bad for you. Hence, Doctors suggest that I eat “fill in animal product” for “fill in any need”..

Meat, dairy, egg industry is like what Tobacco Industry was a couple of a long time ago . Tobacco firms were able to take care of a robust pro-tobacco façade. Smoking focuses the mind. It’s good for you (doctors smoke!). It’s great for weight reduction. It’s sexy. It’s cool. The tobacco industry spent big bucks to maintain these ideas within the mind of the general public for so long as it could. There may be plenty of money within the Meat/Dairy/egg industry too.
There may be lots on information and misinformation(some times an excessive amount of) each for and against arguments about Soy. Among the studies may be tainted as in funded by the meat/dairy industry and another for arguments may be tainted by support from the Soy industry. It’s difficult to make your mind up by some means, but selecting a side just due to money (ads for eg to drink Real milk that comes from cows with a bunch of celebrities endorsing it)? On the blog, I are likely to use more of the entire types of soy with occasional soy meats and other applications.
What about all the great things. Cheese, Chocolate, Ice cream. I may have to “hand over” so many delicious things.
On a plant based food regimen, We don’t “hand over” anything. We “substitute” it with alternatives and work to vegan-ize dishes that we all know. Some are difficult, some easy to either discover a alternative or vegan-ize. But delicious, all of them are. There are such a lot of brands of vegan cheese, desserts, chocolates easily available within the markets lately. My mom has been badgering the larger markets in our small home town in India to provide Almond milk. They have already got soy milk and a few flavored almond milk has hit the shelves. (Yay! for Ma)
But there may be a lot to do. change so many things within the food regimen, and outdoors food regimen after which there may be eco-friendly, green, child labor free, fair trade and all that! And other immediate problems around me faced by human people. I’m overwhelmed.
So am I. But as Colleen says, Dont do nothing because you can’t do every little thing. Do something, anything. And dont stop at that and call it your comfort zone. All of us can Keep doing something and something more.
It’s difficult being Vegan(food regimen).
The transition to the food regimen initially feels difficult just like all major change in life like moving to a recent city, getting married, recent job, or having a baby. Take it one step at a time. Once you work the ropes out, it looks like something you’ve gotten been doing eternally.
There’ll all the time be instances when surrounded by limited options which may be difficult. However the ever increasing demand for vegan options are making those situations easier every yr. Prior to now few years itself, I even have seen several restaurants around change their menu to either discover already vegan options or adding some. Several people in several parts of the world are selecting plant based food regimen with or without easy availability of alternatives.
Lets start with one plant based meal today.. this wrap.. we could 🙂
