Just One Cornetto!
Lunch looked gorgeous in the book, but would it survive a trip to work?
- Chicken Caesar Cornets
I trusted Nigella on this recipe; these little lunch parcels are made with corn tortillas, not wheat. The filling is a caesary mix of worcestershire sauce, mayo, parmesan, chicken and iceberg lettuce and had a satisfying crunch. At the time of making, they looked pretty cool!
However three of the four corn tortillas cracked on parcelling up and looked pretty sad and flat by the time I got mine to work.
They also really had to be wrapped individually in foil/film, rather than just be put in a sandwich box, which I disapprove of on ecological grounds.
I’d eat the salad again. I might re-try the recipe, with wheat tortillas. But I’d probably roll them as wraps, rather than trying the cornets again. So… just one cornetto!
