To prepare the crepes, combine whole wheat flour, water, egg, and olive oil in a bowl. Whisk until smooth, ensuring there are no lumps.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Pour a thin layer of batter into the pan, rotating it to cover the bottom completely. Cook for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to lift, then flip and cook for another 30 seconds. Repeat with the remaining batter and set the crepes aside.
For the filling, melt the unsalted butter in a pan over medium heat. Add diced onion and sautΓ© until translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and diced carrot, cooking for another 2 minutes.
Add the shredded chicken to the pan, season with salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Stir well to combine.
Pour in low-fat milk, stir, and let it simmer until the mixture thickens slightly, about 3-4 minutes. Mix in chopped parsley.
To assemble the risoles, place a heaping tablespoon of filling onto each crepe. Fold the sides inwards, then roll up to enclose the filling completely.
Coat each rolled risol in breadcrumbs.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan for frying. Once hot (around 180Β°C or 350Β°F), carefully add the risoles in batches, frying until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
Remove the risoles and let them drain on paper towels. Serve warm.
