The little vegetarian brother of chicken wings. Lighter and healthier than its deep-fried counterpart, but no less crunchy thanks to the cornflake crumb. This recipe is perfect as an aperitif, starter or main, and can be served with salad, rice or roast potatoes. Simply add a creamy dip and everyone’s happy.
