- Add the peas and desiccated coconut and cook for 2-3 minutes until piping hot.
- When the filling mixture has cooled down slightly place a large spoonful in the centre of each wrap then fold up like a spring roll and secure with a cocktail stick.
- Deep fry the chimichanga for 3-4 minutes until golden and piping hot, then remove carefully with a slotted spoon and drain. Remove the cocktail sticks.
