To think frozen stir fry vegetables are better than sliced bread?

[PoisonousSmurf]

I can't get enough of it! So cheap to buy, lots of different veg, no waste and cooked in a few minutes.
Best thing ever as I hate cold salad but this stuff is delicious, even without any sauces.
Yum!

Where do you buy it from? I always find it so watery!

I like frozen soffrito and frozen chopped onions too.

When I think of the hours I've wasted chopping onions...

Totally agree - also frozen Mediterranean veg. So much more convenient then the trays. (Food waste etc)

What brand? I've only tried watery crap ones.

Asda have frozen veg bags in all different flavours/veg mixes and they come in individual packets...life changing!

It might be better to defrost & drain them first. But then that would take as much time as chopping a fresh one.

I do use them though

I buy all of mine from Aldi, never had a problem with them being watery.

I didn’t even know this existed. You might have changed my life!

Frozen red onion from asda has been great! And frozen chopped garlic

Wait, I’ve just tried to add it to my Tesco order and it’s not there. Is it specifically called stir fry veg?

I have frozen garlic, onions, chilli, ginger, coriander, and a stockpile of jars of red, chilli, and green pesto.
I can have a sauce for pasta on the go within about 30 seconds of walking in the door. Changed my life, discovering frozen herbs.

@bodear this is the one I can get at my Tesco

not if you dont like peppers or sweetcorn like me, have yet to find one that dosent include one or the other or both, and i like my stir fry crisp so i do fresh veggies every time dosent take long with a grater attachment on a food processor

But then you have to clean the processor, the whole point of frozen veg is convenience, and I'm a convert. I even tried carrots - bad move, very bad move.

Frozen carrots are lovely in carrot & coriander soup.

Which make do you buy OP? I always find they don't crisp up enough for me.

YABU. You can't make toast from stir-fry veg.

i do buy frozen petit pois and green beans and aldis frozen cauliflower cheese is lovely and a lot easier than making from scratch, i just dont like the stir fry varieties

I am a trusting soul OP so have taken your word for it and added a bag to my next order. How do you prepare them? As they suggest or do you have your own technique?

I am glad my student DD has discovered these - she can eat veg within her budget

Thanks GetShitDone
It’s in the basket! 🤗
