These crispy bread cones turn everyday bread into a snack guests can pick up and enjoy. The filling combines cheese, finely chopped vegetables, chilli flakes and pizza seasoning.

Trim and flatten each bread slice with a rolling pin. Shape it into a cone, using a little maida slurry to seal the overlapping edge. Mix grated cheese with onion, capsicum, sweet corn and seasonings, then spoon the filling into the cones without packing them too tightly.

Brush the outside with butter and bake until golden, or fry the cones for extra crunch. Serve them hot while the bread is crisp and the cheese is soft. Ketchup or green chutney works well alongside them.

The snack is easy to adapt: try a corn-cheese filling or add a little paneer. For quantities and both cooking methods, follow the complete cheesy bread cones recipe.
