@@helenrushworth7743 It would be fun if she had her own segments from time to time. She probably doesn't want her own show. But, I agree 100% with what you're saying. She has more to say that we want to hear! 😊
I tried putting the red lentils in the vitamix with the water without grinding the lentils first. I added the soaked flax and blended again. Put the mixture in the fridge overnight. The wraps turned out amazing! So it is not necessary to grind the lentils first.
@@Jaelriyou are quite right, I soak my chickpeas or lentils overnight then blend in coconut milk ading chopped green onions wow beautiful, especially with some saffron
I do not have non stick pan , instead I put wet parchment paper inside the pen ,poured grinder lentil mixture with flex seeds and water ,bake 400F for 25 minutes . It baked perfectly , without any oil .
I was always taught to rinse lentils to remove dust and dirt. Instead of blending dry to make a flour, I rinse first, soak in boiling water, then blend into a batter.
Finally found a red lentil wrap recipe that isn't almost paper then. Looks like it is about the size of a pancake, thickness. And cashew ricotta? Gotta try all the flavors! Can hardly wait to try these! If my son also likes these, I will need to hide some of them just to make sure I can still enjoy them. He isn't plant based, but he likes a lot of my food. It is hard to batch cook when he eats a large portion of what I fix and I want to be able to put some away in the freezer. I'm thinking about putting in some of my "ground meat" mixture with some spinach, finally chopped tomatoes, shredded green jackfruit, and some sautéed onion. I can taste it now! Thank you all for sharing these recipes. Something more to look forward to.
Those pancakes look sooooo delicious! So satisfying and substantial! God Bless Karen-Actual, she clearly has been misrepresented. Always a pleasure, Ladies.
you guys are the best; anne you never lose that zinggy beautiful smile; cal landed on his feet when he found you. Thanks for the inspirations and the joy; never lose the joy; and the kitchen is where the joy peaks, as in your smiles;
I am so excited to try these. I struggle with lunch ideas. If I make the wraps and the fillings ahead of time I can have an easy lunch. Thanks so much.
It is so much easier to just soak the red lentils in water, 1 cup lentils, 2 cups water, put in the blender and cook in a non-stick pan. No flax necessary, no making flour necessary.
Flax seeds however ad a ton of super healthy minerals, essential omega 3‘s, Proteins and some vitamins esp. B1 and of course they are high in fibre as well
I used your method and yellow lentils which were marked down to .95 a pound . They were just fine. So you don't really need to go searching for red lentils.
@@kathycarraher5014 Both red lentils and the yellow split mung "lentils" have had their hulls removed, so they are mush easier to cook and get creamy than the brown ones
This is similar to dosa batter, which has ground up rice as well as lentils. Dosa do not have flax. Dosa batter is fermented a bit overnight too. It's pretty fun to make and eat too. I'm going to try these wraps. They look good.
@@karenbuckner1959 It's about 3 rice to 1 lentils. I soak them overnight before I try to use them to make dosa. I actually have a great indian grocery store near me and I follow a dosa recipe I found on the internet. The fermenting makes them a lot like sour dough. I've used other ratios though, with more lentils. I don't think it matters so long as you get the consistency you like.
You ladies were so fun to watch-- you brought a smile to me. I have been wanting to eat wraps ever sjnce seeing chef AJ make & eat the one she made. Oh yes!!!! Im so happy-- you ladies are making me laugh throwing those to turn them. Im making those soon as buying red lentils. God bless you from Grandmz Katie in Oregon
Love it❤ I made the Pro athletes black bean burger for supper today. I'm going to make these wraps tomorrow for my leftovers.. Yayyy. Love you ladies❤ TY
Thank you for this great video with chef Karen 🙌 I have been making wraps and buns with red lentils and they come out delicious 😋 so great to see all the fun and excitement that came with these wraps 🥰
You can buy red lentil flour in a regular supermarket here in Australia. Its been available for a few yrs now.its also great for savoury crepes or a vegan "omelette ".
I soak the red lentils in water for 2-3 hours. Then I blend the mixture until smooth and mix in spices and salt. And then the batter can be poured onto a heated fry pan to prepare the wraps. This “batter “ can also be cooked in a sauce pan, stir constantly until mixture becomes very thick and then transfer to a pyrex glass container and refrigerate several hours and slice into Tofu to create stir fry recipes.
I make pizza by adding grated Violife vegan parmesan when I flip the pancake snd let cheese melt while cooking. After plating I add tomatoes, olives, onions, chopped lettuce. You can use any lentils.
Oh wow, I am going to make these tomorrow for sure. I am thinking of a mock breakfast burrito, filling the wrap with scrambled tofu, seasoned with a bit of kala namac salt. Just a dash, for the egg flavor. Then adding roasted onions, and maybe some homemade salsa and a slice of avocado. Jumm. I like your version too though, with the spinach. I think this would be also great as a mock spanacopita (greek spinach wrap, turned vegan). Let`s see: cooked spinach, and for the cheese maybe some silk tofu, mixed with nutritional yeast and herbs and spices, or maybe a vegan szaziki sauce, made from vegan sour creme, shredded cucumber and garlic....... I bet you could even eat these wraps just like crepe, and fill them with a homemade chocolate creme or cinnamon apple sauce. .....
Thanks! I have tried to make lentil wraps many times but they always fall apart when cooking. The flax meal seems to be the answer! I often make a similar wrap using raw quinoa. Just blend with water in a Vitamix (same ratio as this recipe) and pour onto lined baking tray and bake in oven for around 25 minutes. Delicious and nutritious.
I’ve made rent lentil flatbreads by blending the red lentils with water And pouring a little in a hot nonstick pan and I sometimes sprinkle some spices immediately after pouring, but you do not need to add the flax eggs and you don’t need to turn the lentils into flour. You can do it all at one time in a high-speed blender.
I made some red lentils wraps a few days ago with just washed red lentils and water. They did taste amazing with a nice garlicky hummus. I did find it necessary to season the wrap batter, though because the taste of red lentils was too overpowering for my family. I am trying to train their tastebuds but it is slow going 😂 They did get quite dry and breakable rather than pliable so I see why the flax egg would be beneficial. Unfortunately, since becoming plant based, I have developed an allergy to soy. It shows as nasty eczema outbreaks all over my face and so many things that I used to enjoy are now off the table… literally. Nuts, seeds, dried fruits and many different grains are always contaminated with soy spores from packaging plants. Add anything made from flour, as well, because soy lecithin is used in the process of making it. It drives me mad that sunflower lecithin could be used in place of soy but it just won’t happen. The animal agriculture industry makes it so that soy is much less expensive to use. Rant over 🤣 Great recipes, Chef! They always look amazing! (It would be incredible to see more allergen free recipes. )
Thank you very much for this. Awesome red lentil wrap recipe! I tried sweet potato flatbread. Those came out delicious too! I never get bored with the new recipes.❤
I am so making these asap! Thank you Chef Karen, Jane, Ann and Wade! I will check out the athlete burger recipe as well. I'm also nearly inspired to start running again....nearly! 🙃

@@loria.02139 I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my red lentil wraps stuck in both a non-stick pan & a regular pan (Eck, I even tried adding a little oil.)
@@cheriy8750 Hi. I have the same problem with plant based pancakes. Unless I use PAM, they stick. I'll continue with other recipes. I do like red lentils cooked, just as I like brown lentails (using plant based recipes). Thanks for your suggestions.
I have seen similar recipes from other vegan cooks. They soak the red lentils in water before blending them with water. But they don’t blend the dry lentils into flour. I’m curious if you need to soak or rinse them to begin. They also don’t use flax. So maybe different variations still work. It is amazing for a gluten free option of a wrap. Thank you for sharing the magic of lentils😊
Yes - making the lentils into flour seems a bit of a hassle with all the lentil dust flying around! I always just use lentils and water, but maybe the flax is to add extra nutrition?
@@JocelynJKahnI think they’re using the flax as a binder because when you soak the flax in water like they did it can be used as a substitute for eggs in cooking
Oh my gosh!! New subscriber here. I just got a kick out of your intro with you running with the fork. Hahahah so clever. I am going to try this recipe too. Looks super yummy. I am also on the search for your book.
I’m going to try cruciferous greens collection Trader Joe’s - steamed, black beans and Braggs aminos is ginger to be my first since I want to focus on making the wraps.
I’ve only seen wraps made with red lentils because they are so delicate and break down in water. Since these are ground into flour first, other lentils might work, but they may also have to “rest” longer to absorb the water properly. If you try it, please let us know.

You guys are like the aunts we all need. I feel like a part of your family learning healthy cooking when I watch these :-)
am I the only one who thinks Ann needs her own show?
Yes i do, she often gets talked over and not allowed to finish stuff
Sometimes Jane takes over the whole show, i like listening to Ann

I thought as much.
And I always thought lentils from the store should be well rinsed first, so your way is perfect!
I’ve just washed, then soaked lentils add water, maybe a bit of salt, then blend,, mine never fall apart or break.
Yes. Should be washed first. Professional chef's don't.
Shortcut - just put the lentils and other ingredients in the blender with water. No need to make lentil flour as a separate step. Works well for me. 😊
then you can rinse the lentils first- which is my concern. I allwas rinse lentils before cooking
@@simonneholm475 Yes - I always rinse my lentils too, whatever the recipe.
Good idea thank you
