Substitutions and Variations

More Vegetables: Feel free to customise the veggies and seasonings. Add other vegetables like red onion, corn, cucumber or spinach.

Spicy: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper, chopped green chillies, or jalapenos for a spicy kick.

Tips and Tricks

Don’t Overfill: Make sure not to overstuff chickpea filling as it can make wrapping difficult and messy.

Tortilla: Warm the tortilla until it is pliable and soft before making a wrap so the wrapping would be easier.
