Method
1 To make the wraps, spoon the flours, salt, pinch of nutmeg and allspice and caster sugar in a bowl.
2 Whisk the egg, milk and water in a jug. Pour the egg mixture into the flour and whisk to form a smooth thin batter. You may need to add a little more water. Leave to stand for about 10 minutes before using. If it is too thick (and often it will be), add a little more water and stir well.
3 To cook the wraps, pour the batter with a ladle onto a non-stick frying pan with a little oil over a medium heat. Cook for about 1½ minutes before turning over onto the other side for about 30 to 40 seconds. Slide onto a warm plate and keep warm with pieces of parchment to separate them.
4 To serve, arrange the wraps on a board or tray and add toppings as desired. Garnish with mint leaves and dust with icing sugar if you like.
