About this deal

It would go perfectly in a hearty bowl of ravioli or family-size spaghetti bolognese. And on that note, I made a large dish of pasta for my whole family so that no jars in this experiment went to waste. I froze the rest. When I first opened the tin, I noticed the tomatoes were paler than the other brands I’ve used before, but the smell was really nice and sweet. I added the chopped tomatoes to the pan and noticed that, despite they're being a good amount of tomatoes in the tin, the consistency was very watery. To keep things affordable, I will often cook too much pasta so I can have it cold for lunch the next day. But, as with everything it seems at the moment, basic food items are increasing in price, including pasta sauce. Feed in the rest of the mince, a little at a time, through the filleropening in the lid and brown using the roast button. Pour in the redwine and cook uncovered - leaving off the measuring beaker - for 5 minutes using the roast button, until the liquid is reduced.

Light - Have a job that involves long periods of sitting (office-based / driving) or are home-based and sitting for much of the day. Typical jobs: office worker, sales rep, bus/taxi/lorry driver. Bills are going up, leaving many shoppers turning to cheaper alternatives for staple items such as tea bags, coffee and fairy liquid. However, some shoppers aren't always keen on 'value' product items, and turn to more expensive 'finer' brands. Aldi's Everyday Essentials Tomato and Herb Pasta Sauce had a low tomato content and, as a result, was pale in colour. It was watery and had big chunks of onion in it. It was the cheapest at just 47p for a 440g jar, however, it didn't boast that rich tomato taste. Slice and add the onion to the pan and cook for 5-6 minutes until softened, then roughly chop and stir in the tomatoes, smoked paprika and tomato purée for colour and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add in the letscho pepper pieces and cook briskly for 3-4 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated. Tip into the bowl with the sausage pieces.

Clean the blender jug, then add the onion, garlic, carrot and celery pieces and chop for 8 seconds on speed setting 5. Scrape down the sides of the jug with the spatula and process for a further 5 seconds on speed setting 5. The cost of living crisis is affecting us all majorly as consumers, even with simple activities like our weekly food shop. Heat the oil in a deep frying pan, drain, halve and pat dry the artichokes, add to the frying pan and fry over a medium-low heat for 4-6 minutes until golden. Now for the important part - the taste test. Aldi’s chopped tomatoes are sweet and tasty, so were pleasant to eat. However, I couldn’t get past the wateriness. It made the pasta and vegetables quite soggy, unlike the usual brand of tomatoes I use.

Heat the oil in the pan, lightly beat and add the eggs then season and cook on a medium heat until softly scrambled. Gently fold in the sausage and vegetable mixture. Add half the oil to the jug and brown the vegetables for 4 minutes using the roast button. Add half the mince and cook using the roast button until browned. Remove all the ingredients from the jug and set aside, rinsing out the jug to use again. Heavy - Active for much of the day, walking non-stop and carrying objects. Typical jobs: hospital/ward nurse, waitressing in a busy restaurant, cleaner, porter, labourer/construction worker, gardener, farm worker. Leisure Activity Level If it wasn't for the price, I would happily eat this sauce straight from the jar as a makeshift tomato soup with a nice hunk of buttered bread.

Leaving it to simmer on the reverse setting means you don't need to worry about monitoring or stirring the bolognese while its cooking - giving you time to get on with other things!Moderate - On your feet for much of the day, either standing or occasional slow paced walking. Typical jobs: shop assistant, teacher, chef/cook, bar worker, engineer.

We get through a lot of tinned tomatoes in our house, with Spaghetti Bolognese and chilli con carne in heavy rotation. I've tried the fancier Napolina chopped tomatoes in the past and have found them lovely and rich in comparison to many other cheaper brands. But they're also one of the most expensive on the shelf and in these costly times, I'm keen to save money where I can. Where to buy: Sainsbury's in store or online.

E.g. going to the gym / swimming / cycling / horse riding / dance classes / playing golf. Daily dog walking (brisk pace, twice a day).Begin by grating the Parmesan. Break the cheese into chunks and add to the blender jug, processing for 10 seconds using the turbo button. Transfer to another container and reserve until ready to serve.
