A homecook has revealed her secret to a perfect crispy coating – crushed up instant noodles.

Gail, who posts on From the Pantry to the Table, shared her recipe for crispy potato, chilli and parmesan rolls, which are very cheap to make.

They need just a free ingredients and can be whipped up in minutes.

After cooking and mashing the potato filling, Gail is able to roll it into shape, dip it in a batter and then dip it in the crushed up noodles.

Once she fries it, the noodles become a delicious coating and it’s a great alternative to breadcrumbs.

Gail says: ‘Party food or just a snack, even as a side dish, these little potato rolls are delicious. I teamed it with the Spicy Tomato Dipping Sauce, and it was just perfect. Recipe inspiration was from Maggi.’

She uses instant noodles from Maggi which aren’t sold in the UK but Super Noodles or supermarket own brand ones will work just as well.
