Frequently Asked Questions

→ How do you keep the wraps extra crispy?
Make sure the oil is hot enough, and avoid crowding the pan. Let them drain on paper towels to get rid of excess oil.
→ Can these wraps be frozen?
Yes, freeze them before frying. Cook them straight from frozen for best results.
→ What are some variations for the filling?
Swap the ham for chicken, tuna, or veggies. Experiment with different cheeses to suit your taste.
→ How can I reheat these wraps?
Bake them in the oven at 350°F for about 5-7 minutes to make them crispy again. Avoid using the microwave—it’ll make them soggy.
→ What are some good sides to serve with these?
Pair with a fresh green salad, tangy tzatziki, or a simple tomato dipping sauce for extra flavor.
