- 4 rice paper sheets
- Coconut milk chilled in tin in fridge
- 4 tbsp Chopped fresh/frozen fruits
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- 200 ml mango juice
- 2 tbsp cornstarch or potato starch
Prepare chia pudding by adding mango juice to chia seeds and leaving aside.
Whip the chilled coconut milk - only use the solid part. Retain the liquid for another recipe or a smoothie.
Soak the rice paper sheets in water until they become pliable, about 30 seconds.
Sprinkle with cornstarch or potato starch and brush to spread evenly on one side.
Flip over with the floured side face-down and place over a small bowl or cup.
Spoon a roughly 1 tbsp chia pudding, 2 tbsp coconut milk and 1 tbsp chopped fruits in the centre of the rice paper.
Gather the edges of the rice paper square around the filling, pinching them together to form a small ball.
Leave to chill or serve immediately.
