I love cooking and spending my time in the kitchen. But during the busy day, I need to make something quick and simple for my lunch. One of my favourite dishes for a busy day is a wrap sandwich, it’s super quick and easy to make. There are many variations ingredients you can add to your sandwich wrap, you can use grilled chicken, spiced beef, fish or even your leftover Thanksgiving. For vegetarian version try this Arugula and Buffalo Cheese Wrap.
For this vegetarian pita wrap, I use arugula, tomato slices and local buffalo cheese called dangke. Dangke is a fresh cheese from Enrekang, South Sulawesi. Traditionally this cheese prepared with water buffalo milk, but these days is more common to find dangke made of fresh cow milk. This unaged cheese made by curdling the heated milk with the sap of papaya, the curd then drained in a coconut shell and the excess water is pressed out.
Arugula and Buffalo Cheese Wrap
You can substitute dangke with paneer or firm tofu. If you substitute the cheese with tofu better to season the tofu with salt before you grill it.
