The Role of Lasagna Sheets
Lasagna sheets are the base of the chips.
They provide:
- Firm structure when cooked
- Ability to crisp up in the air fryer
- Neutral flavour that pairs with dips

Once crisped, they become light and crunchy.
Why Air Frying Works So Well
The air fryer is essential because it:
- Creates even crispiness
- Uses little to no oil
- Cooks quickly
- Produces a golden, crunchy finish
It turns soft pasta into a snackable chip.
The Importance of Brie Cheese
Brie is the star dip.
It adds:
- Creamy, velvety texture
- Rich, buttery flavour
- Mild earthy aroma
- Melted indulgence when warmed
It pairs perfectly with crunchy pasta chips.

Choosing the Best Lasagna Sheets
You can use:

Dried lasagna sheets (pre-boiled)
