Once I saw a similar recipe on the Internet, and then the idea of ​​​​making pasta chips at home seemed very interesting to me. But then I forgot about it, never trying to cook it. So when I accidentally found this recipe, I decided that this time I would definitely not miss this opportunity. In addition to the fact that making such pasta chips is absolutely not difficult, it also turns out to be very budget-friendly. How delicious! The pasta is very crispy and tastes like popcorn (for me personally). Sprinkle the finished chips with paprika and salt. I made it for four servings as a test, but next time I will make more. Nika, thank you very much for the recipe!
