Quickly wet the rice paper pieces (cut into fourths) one by one under running water or by dipping them in a shallow dish of water. Immediately place each wetted rice paper piece over each of the browned meat balls in the pan, pressing gently to adhere. Pour a small amount of water (about 1/4 cup) into the pan. Cover the pan with a lid. Cook until the rice paper becomes crispy and the meat is almost fully cooked through, which should take approximately 5-10 minutes.
