It makes a tasty soft and flexible wrap. The water can be replaced with vegetable juices for different colour and flavour. Spices such as cummin, or herbs such as parsley can be added to the mix for extra flavour as well. Once cooked, the wraps can be brushed with olive oil and sprinkled with salt then cut into wedges and baked in the oven until crisp for tasty chips. Alternatively, garlic butter can be used instead of oil and salt. I find that it is useful to keep a packet of the wrap mix in the pantry for when unexpected visitors arrive, so that I can produce quick and easy food that meets all dietary requirements.

Hello neighbours! I am standing as a candidate for Waikato Regional Council in the Waikato constituency. I hold a long history of governance, including my role as Chair of the WRC Lower Waikato Zone Committee.

Guardianship of our region demands that we have a vision to balance the needs of society and the environment, and to generate wealth for all our communities and whanau.
