Coconut Chickpea Rice Paper Wraps
A thick coconut-curry chickpea filling makes these rice-paper wraps different from a raw vegetable roll. They suit a lunch with time set aside for assembly. Let the filling reduce and cool briefly so it can hold on a spoon, then work with one wrapper at a time. Too much filling or liquid makes the rolls difficult to close.
