Notes

You can crush up the cornflakes in your food processor. For a crunchier finish, leave them slightly less crushed.

I also often add garlic salt and mixed Italian herbs to my mixture. Feel free to add other herbs and spices too.

If you have a Thermomix, grate the Parmesan for 10 seconds on speed 9 and the Cornflake for 5 seconds on speed 6. This makes a fine crumb as shown in the pictures for this recipe.
