If I saved that amount of money I would be gutted if the prize was my in-laws...

It's not a prize, it's a way of using up the left overs. When you can't do any more with it, invite the in-laws round and let them eat it :rotfl:

I'm assuming this probably won't work but worth trying if they are going to go waste otherwise- when I cook poppadoms, I buy the dried 'raw' ones from Asian shop and then microwave them for about 30 secs a side. You can brush them with oil if you want for the true takeaway flavour but I do without so healthy.

I'm just wondering if the same system would work with prawn cracker discs or not?

Why didn't I think of that?! I do poppadoms in the same way.

I'll give them a go in a bit, thanks for the suggestion (I wonder if their colour remains once cooked...I guess i'll find out!)
