Pizza Kaastengels
These crispy pizza kaastengels are super fun to make with the kids!
Little hands are great at wrapping cheese strings in spring roll pastry and tucking in fresh basil leaves - just let the grown-ups handle the hot oil bit (especially with tiny kids). The real magic is in the dipping sauce though - ketchup mixed with Pizza Chilli Crisp creates this sweet-heat combo that's absolutely addictive. Simple as anything, but they disappear faster than you can make them!
