Tesco Katsu Chicken Curry

Published on December 9th, 2017

Deliciously crispy chicken coating, with moist chicken breast. Jasmine rice is the perfect level of stickiness and complements the meal well. A good katsu curry. The downside is that the chicken has to be cooked in the oven for twenty minutes. Bit of a faff.

Tesco Value Pasta in a Tomato and Onion Sauce

Published on August 27th, 2013

Word of warning- takes an age to cook! I wanted a quick meal before my lecture, but this requires 15 minutes in the microwave- I had to return to it afterwards. Decent portion size, but the tomato sauce is a bit sweet, sickly, and bland. This tastes just like plain pasta with a little bit… [Read More]

Tesco Spaghetti Bolognese

Published on July 26th, 2013

The mince has liquidated into the sauce, giving the sauce a vaguely brown colour. As ever, the spaghetti is soft. Tasty, filling.

Tesco Farfalle Pasta Carbonara

Published on May 19th, 2013

Very oily. Looks very unappetising- one big splodgy mess. Made some very scary noises in the microwave. Admittedly, the little cubes of unidentifiable meat are quite pleasant. But the rest of it has a peculiar taste- as if the plastic packaging has burned and the fumes have been infused into the pasta. Not a tasty… [Read More]

Tesco Value Chicken Curry with Vegetables

Published on March 31st, 2013

Not a good curry. Very much like a chip shop curry. Barely any chicken. Doesn’t taste BAD. Nice and cheap, filling.

Tesco Finest British Roast Chicken Soup

Published on March 30th, 2013

Reasonably tasty. Actual pieces of chicken, some of them almost an inch long! Nice, easy microwave instructions. Nice idea. More chicken then expected, and more than it first appears. Not bad!

Tesco Pasta Shells in Bolognese Sauce

Published on October 24th, 2012

A bit sickly, small portion size, overpriced, and doesn’t look at all appetizing. However, it tastes fairly good and is a quick and easy snack. Not bad.

Tesco Chicken Jalfrezi

Published on September 17th, 2012

Not a lot to say about this one. It’s quite spicy and is about as hot as a curry can get while still being tasty. The sauce is a tad watery, but there is lots of chicken. Nice and easy microwaving instructions.

Tesco Chicken, Garlic & Wine Pasta

Published on September 12th, 2012

This was a real pain to cook- need to add milk, boiling water, and optional butter. Then it needed microwaving, which led to an explosion and about 15 minutes cleaning up the mess. So much for fast food! Nice taste of parsley and fairly creamy sauce. The tiny pieces of chicken, as opposed to just… [Read More]

Tesco Real Ale Beef Stew and Dumplings

Published on July 3rd, 2012

Meaty sauce. Pleasant but nothing special. Packed with meat and potatoes- good, hearty food. The dumplings are a bit disappointing- total lack of flavour, slightly too sticky. Still, they’re adequate, and there are two of them. Nicely cooked beef.
