SCRUBBING your burnt-on pans is by far the worst part of cooking and enjoying a nice meal.

But Lynsey Crombie, the Queen of Clean, has revealed how you can get them spotless in seconds without the scrubbing, and all you need is a teabag.

We agree, it sounds too good to be true, which is why the mum-of-three demonstrated the hack in action on her Instagram – and it really works.

Sharing the hack with her 219k followers, the cleaning guru wrote: "New or used tea bags are a great cleaner and they work amazing at cleaning up dirty pans.

"Let the tea do the trick. No scrubbing required."

In the clip she showed her grubby pan filled with a small amount of water to soak.

Then she chucks in a teabag and revealed the tannins in the brew target the hard-to-clean spots.

The cleaning sensation says to leave it for 15 minutes and in this time you can easily do a couple of other things.

When you return, pour out the liquid (and the stubborn gunk) and rinse the pan.

You'll be surprised by how clean it looks without even taking a sponge to it.
