    I've had the Lidl, Aldi and Asda versions of this and they're all really good. I cook and shred mine on a preheated pizza stone and just follow the timings. It's delicious with some spring onion strands and cucumber. It'll stretch to two portions, just about. A nice Friday night treat for a night in, especially if there's a film after with a sweet at half time.

    If you want to help with the dryness, pour all the drippings back over the meat before shredding it....

    Happy bank holiday weekend Gareth and all! Used to love eating duck until the day I was given an egg to incubate in my chicken incubator and a few weeks later out popped, yes you’ve guessed it, a tiny duckling that immediately thought I was Dad (well, hopefully Dad and not Mum 😂). Of course I imaginatively christened it Donald and it turned out to be a girl 🤦🏻‍♂️😂. Never been able to eat duck since, but damn, watching you review this reminded me how delicious it is, and I certainly won’t forget it! Have a great weekend pal and hope you get to take a day off the channel to spend some well deserved time with your family! 👍☀️

    Hi Gareth, I have heard many people say that they get indigestion from cucumber. I don't really know if this is true but I was told that it is the skin that gives people the indigestion. So I always peel the skin off before chopping it. This may be just an old wives tale but it works for me. Cheers mate, still watching everyday. 🤪

    That looked really good quality Gareth and I don't think it was bad for the money. With getting 12 pancakes I think you could have put a bit less meat in yours. If you had some chips it would quite easily serve two. I would buy it. I will have to look in Lidl to see if they do it.

  • @Asgardsteve1
    @Asgardsteve1 Před rokem +6

    Since you had the issue with the weight of steaks in one of your steak reviews I have been weighing the meat products that I buy from Aldi and shock horror 70% of them were under the stated weight by between 7% and 20%. The weight differences were not random, for example all the minced beef was 9% under weight, bacon 11% underweight and so on. I have complained to Aldi customer service and their response was the weight on the packaging is only a guide and does not represent what you may get. Obviously this is a breach of trading standards and when I pointed this out to Aldi they stated that they would refund all the underweight products. So worth checking the weights when you buy them as this seems a deliberate act by the supermarkets.

    This was a great review. 👍👍. Although I get my duck from Lidl they are basically the same as Aldi. Gressingham being the breed of crossbreeding a wild Mallard with a Peking duck. It's a shame that finding duck spring rolls is a bit hit and miss. Your duck looked really great and had my tongue hanging out 🦆🦆🦆😍😍😛😛🥰🥰. Sometimes I do swap out the Hoisin for sweet chilli, but that's the beauty of this kind of meal, you can choose your own flavour to put on. As always, keep up the great work. 👍👍 .
