[Review] Morrisons The Best Steak & Ale Pasties

Morrisons The Best pasty series were a bit disappointing.

Tried the Steak and ale pasty as well as the Cheese and onion pasty.

Both had too much chunky potato pieces in them and the pastry was hard and thick.

Marks and Spencers Percy Pig pancakes and other Percy Pig finds

New Percy pig pancakes with fruity jelly pieces and Percy Pig flavoured dessert sauce.
A similar recipe to the Percy Pig Swiss roll launched last November also made with fruity jelly pieces.

Unfortunately the strawberry flavouring was a bit artificial to taste but the smell was quite nice.

It was also too sweet so I plan to pair it with some Greek Yoghurt.

Marks and Spencers Cheese hot Cross buns with marmite review

Another savoury choice for hot cross buns with the new Marmite hot cross bun following the success of the chilli and cheese last year which is also available this year.

The Marmite hot cross bun is made with mature and red Leicester with delicious Marmite.

ASDA has also followed the savoury band wagon with their Extra Special Tomato & Red Leicester Hot Cross Buns launched this year.

I am not really a hot cross bun fan because of raisins but these few years I have been eating them because of the different flavours.

The other reason I am not fond of hot cross buns is the texture, it is too soft just like Asian bread which makes it hard to swallow.

The fact that it was marmite made it more edible and you get this lovely marmite aftertaste when you swallow it.

The best way of eating it is toasting it because the marmite really comes out so be warned if you hate marmite.

ajinomoto sam smak rosol ostry (spicy chicken) instant noodle review

Spotted these ajinomoto sam smak rosol ostry (spicy chicken) instant noodles at the shops so decided to try them.

They are designed to be convenient because you just put the noodles in a bowl with hot water and they are ready to eat within 3 minutes.

There are three flavours: tomato, spicy chicken and four cheese so I ended up getting the four cheese and spicy chicken.

The broth was not to my liking because it was a bit artificial and they are better off boiled for a better texture.

The Vegetarian Butcher little willies

A while ago I tried the burgers and a burger from Burger King which uses The Vegetarian Butcher patties.

This time I tried the Vegetarian Butcher Little Willies.

In terms of taste, they were amazing because they were spiced like a regular Lincolnshire sausage but the texture was not to my liking because the fibres were too elastic.

When I cut into the sausage, there were some really stringy bits inside and the texture was similar to those mock patties in Hong Kong made of mushroom stalks and whatever it is made of.

Sainsburys Bramley Apple & Cream turnover

I love apple turnovers so this time tried Sainsburys version with fresh cream.

The apple turnover was nice but the filling was not evenly distributed and the pastry was a bit stuff and hard.
