Hey mate. I was watching a TH-cam video on how to sharpen a knife if you haven't got a sharpener. Just use a china mug. At the bottom there is a rim that's not glazed, draw your knife across that bit and it will put an good edge on it. I have tried it and it works done a few knives today. Very good video as normal.
Hi Gareth, This one is a lot better than yesterdays pizza. 50p a bhaji burger that is a bargain that will go well a burger with mango chutney then the bhaji then a chicken quarter pounder and topped with curry ketchup. That is going on my shopping list. Thanks Gareth take care
And me. I usually buy Tesco brand, but these look better value. My local Tandoori serve onion bhajis the size of cricket balls, and one of the waiters told me it is because the Manager loves cricket (which he does).
You might think it's daft making a bhaji into a burger shape, but for some of us who don't eat meat..it makes a lot of sense! Thanks for the review, I'm off to Iceland for a sample 👍
Will definitely be after those, and not too bad a price as well. You chose well with Geeta's, imo, the best mango chutney. Great review, many thanks 😊👍
Your saving us a few bob not buying disgusting things, love the reactions and recommendations so far, keep up your good service. Maybe some of these companies should start sending food for review. I know vape companies and product companies do to other people.
Totally agree, I noticed that in a few of the more recent vids, it's great for ideas and inspiration. And the comments also seem to stay on topic so I can learn a lot from getting lots of different peoples ideas and recommendations. Not many channels on YT manage that in the comments sections.
Go out for curry fairly regularly, and whenever I try a new place i always try their onion bhajis for my starter. I find its a good benchmark of how good a curry house it is.
Tamarind sauce goes very well with onion bhaji's, samosas and pakoras. Health benefits of tamarind: A rich source of antioxidants. ... May have anticancer properties. ...

Hi Gareth ,i suspected that this might have been another rip off gimmick but it seems im proved wrong .looked very decent indeed .get yourself some nice sauce and off you go lol..keep up the spot on work Best wishes from Scotland .
Hi Gareth. If you like the Geeta's mango chutney, you should also try their "Premium Pomegranate and Mango" version. It's a bit different but equally delicious.
I'd give these a go but with one of Aldi's frozen Waygu burgers. However, here's the thing (as Adrian Monk used to say), why is there added sugar in there? Four grams of the stuff!? When my missus makes bhajis at home, does she add sugar? Does she buggery! Great video, as always.
They look good Gareth. I will have to try these. But they do look just like vegetable pakora's really...just with more onion in them to give them a Bahji taste. Iceland use to do some really nice Balti Beef Burgers..they were lovely. One suggestion I can make as you love a good curry (I do too) is Asda's Lamb Rogan Josh, supposed to be a meal for two...but that would be a small meal for two. It does not come with Rice...Just the Curry. But a bag of Tilda Basmati rice goes nice with it. The Curry is £4 though. But still cheaper than a takeout..even if you do have to buy the rice seperate. Some reviews say that the lamb can be a bit fatty...but lamb is a fatty meat anyway..and it adds to the flavour. I love it. I had it for my tea last night.. I have whats left for a small curry in the fridge. You can always bulk it out with some veg I expect, to make it a larger portion for two. Goes lovely too with onion Bahji's and Naan bread..or podadams
id love to work for Icelands Research and development/product development departments. I think they come up with these things whilst passing a joint round
At a food fair, I saw a burger van, and opted for a Balti Onion Bhaji with Paneer and chilli jelly. £4.50, but that was cheap compared to their same size beef burgers that were £8!!!!! They also did a battered mushroom burger, but I was full after the bhaji one.
They seemed to have gone down well. They looked good too, defo made for air frying. A simple thin flatbread, some raita, the mango chutney and some shredded cabbage and carrot would be nice, maybe a garlic sauce drizzle?. I look forward to your Iceland review of Southern Fried Chicken flavoured turkey goujon kebabs 😂😂😂
Lot of people joke about the Iceland stuff, they do tend to like a gimmick but this is certainly one of the decent ones. Myself, I actually fancy trying these with their lamb burgers! Along with a few sides/additions, that'd make quite the burger stack and combo well, I reckon.
I agree it’s a gimmick, and I can’t imagine it on a burger bun like the serving suggestion, but they actually look really nice, especially with the mango chutney, and the price is very reasonable. I love bhajis, so I will give these a try the next time I am in Iceland.
Interesting, could make an Indian inspired KFC tower burger with those. Garlic mayo on the bottom bun, salad, bhaji, tandoori or tikka chicken breast topped with mango chutney.
I watched a guy called Andy on TH-cam review these and he loved em. I don’t do Indian food so this is absolutely not for me but I like to watch these types of videos to see what others think
@@andywatts8654 oh, lots say they do taste Indian and to be honest, I can’t see it not tasting Indian. I’ve never tried them so I’m only going by what others say.
They look the part and they must be tasty you looked if you enjoyed that on the list for the next order with the grill house Kebab meat which is tasty as well from Iceland 👍
I’m a bit confused as to how I’d eat these. In a burger bun doesn’t appeal. I think definitely as a starter with a pickle tray. If they aren’t greasy would they work as party nibbles.
I don't think there is alot of potato flakes in the bhaji as it is listed after the cotton seed oil. We have bhajis 2-3 times a week, they are dead easy to make and so tasty, we get the gram flour /chickpea flour / besan from asda KTC Superfine Gram Flour 2kg £2.50. Plenty of recipes on youtube with a wide variations some just using plain flour and baking powder. Red onions normaly stated as the best for bhaji making, asda have JUST ESSENTIALS by ASDA Red Onions 1kg for 65p and they are what we use mostly if in stock, Finely sliced season and then we scrunch them up with our hands to help them break down quicker. And yes we use instant potato flakes in our recipe, not much just enough to be a binder, it can also be used to firm up your batter mix if you make it to sloppy. Do not let the fry oil get to hot if you choose that cooking method as the outside will burn before the inside is cooked, don't make the fritters to thick ethier an inch at most 3/4 of an inch is what we aim for when frying in ghee and sunflower oil. Make sure to choose the right recipe to match your preffered cooking method, airfryer needs to be a thicker consistency to be self supporting while the batter for oil frying is looser as it will seize when it hits the oil and hold it's shape. If we see these in iceland i'll grab acouple of boxes and give then a go. That being said home made bhajis freeze really well and re quick and easy to reheat. Take care, God bless one and all.
Thank you for the recipe,the Indian restaurants no longer seem to make the onion bhajis in the US,and our supermarkets haven’t caught on to Indian food yet.I think these would make a good sandwich on a bun,with coriander chutney,and lettuce,and tomato.
An idea I've got in my head is:...one of these onion bhajis between two thin minted lamb patties, with mint yoghurt and mango chutney, all between a pair of paratha's 😋
The question is how did school get through you 🤣. Come on its onion bhaji what's not to like and not a excessive price, some of these are going on the next list I reckon. Would go in the bun with maybe a bit of cheese but I love them just as they are. Nice one ty.
Love your videos. I am thinking of getting the same combination cooker that you have. Would you be able to cook them the same in that? You know the air fryer function?
When my Indian put up the price of the pickle tray to £3.95, my wife started taking a jar of mango chutney in her handbag and sneaking a few spoonfuls onto the plate when they weren't looking.
It do look good. Crispy and tasty. (Next potato scallops (sliced potato in crispy batter) which we used to get for an old penny from the chippy......😂)
(437) This is a damn clever idea, actually. Wonder when they will start making the spiced potato patties, which are outrageously popular in India/Asia as well???
Obviously they tasted great. But an onion bhaji burger ? I don’t think so. I may enjoy these as a side dish when having a curry. Along with some Bombay potatoes, some Saag Aloo and a selection of chutneys and dips. Nice choice m8. 👍🏻👍🏻

I'll keep a lookout for the battered bhajis stuffed with baked beans and Cathedral City cheese. You know its coming.
That'll be £8.99 for a pack of 2😝
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍
🤣
🤣yeah,or in a Yorkshire pudding🤣👍
@@martindunstan8043 aye, forgot that one 🤣🤣🤣
I bought a pack of these today, and some mini naans. They are truly amazing, thank you!
You're welcome

Cool tip 👍

Enjoy
These look good, and at 50p each you can't grumble!
Cheers again for the review Gareth!!!
Cheers Mad, have a good weekend 😎
May try them one day , good review Gareth. Loving the comical comments on these 😅
Glad you like them!
The Geeta’s chutney is awesome, it has all sorts in it.
So good!
Iceland'll probably sell mango chutney with Liquorice Allsorts in it.
Whole spices including garlic cloves it’s the mutts nuts!!
They look delicious! Thanks for another honest review 💜💜💜
It’s really good
Nice one Gaz: I'll be purchasing a box of these. Cooked good and crispy on a good bun with mint yoghurt, lettuce and tomato. Cheers for the heads up.
You're welcome mate 👍
Evening Gareth another belter😊 My good lady suggested serving the bhaji on a real burger 🍔 Might be worth a go😊 Cheers Allan&Family
Sounds great! Cheers Allan
Will definitely be after those, and not too bad a price as well. You chose well with Geeta's, imo, the best mango chutney. Great review, many thanks 😊👍
Cheers Nigel
I'm just doing my Iceland shopping online, I'll be putting some of these on to try, Loves me some onion Bhaji's.
Apparently they don’t taste Indian. So if you like taste of India, you may not get it here😅 at least that’s what someone said in comments.
Thanks Gareth. Love the thought of tucking in to these. Yummy xx
Cheers Keith 👌
@@BaldFoodieGuy . . Hope you have a great day Gareth.
That's on my shopping list for Saturday. Hope they're not too dry as I like a wee bit of moisture.
Enjoy 😉
Your saving us a few bob not buying disgusting things, love the reactions and recommendations so far, keep up your good service. Maybe some of these companies should start sending food for review. I know vape companies and product companies do to other people.

Actually looked good and with that all knowing expression when you were tasting it, coupled with the 9 out of 10, I'm deffo gonna try these 😋
Hi! Tried these yesterday for my dinner and i really enjoyed them really tasty thanks!
Glad you like them! They are tasty 😋
They are really good for the money Gareth 👍🏻👍🏻
Yes top drawer
You’re right Gaz, raita…..yoghurt, mint , cucumber, & optional onion….lovely ….😝
Yummy 😋
Thanks Gary. I do prefer to have a little grease on my bhaji
Look like super value for money for a change ❤
Yes, mango chutney is a good add on. Try chopped cucumber in sour cream too.
Thanks for the tip!

Lovely,iceland sell some really different and sometimes strange products,but surprisingly tasty. I'll be trying these next time. 👍👌
I'd give these a go but with one of Aldi's frozen Waygu burgers. However, here's the thing (as Adrian Monk used to say), why is there added sugar in there? Four grams of the stuff!? When my missus makes bhajis at home, does she add sugar? Does she buggery! Great video, as always.

Wow Gareth your subs are rocketing. Well deserved, I’ve been with you since around 20k. Keep it up.
Thanks! Will do!
id love to work for Icelands Research and development/product development departments. I think they come up with these things whilst passing a joint round
😂😂😂
I like bhaji as part of my salad for bit of crunchy taste. They're perfect thanks !!!
Most welcome 😊
I bought the burger you reviewed and had a row with it a right onion bhaji!
Haha 👍
They'd go well with the Aldi Tikka Chicken Marsala which are 99p.each
Yep definitely on the list cheers
I’ve just made onion bhajis at home…very easy, cheap and fresh.
I think I will try these next time we have a home curry, instead of the small supermarket ones.
Thanks Gareth 😋👍
Hope you enjoy
Ok nice be nice with curry.
Enjoyed watching.
Best wishes gareth

Do like some Onion Bhajis with a Ruby 😋 cheers for the video Gaz ….Smithy
Cheers mate
I haven't been in Icelands for your years but I'm going to do it! At least they're different and trying.
Spot on with the mango chutney, perhaps some slice tomato and a slice of cheese as well
And a slab of beef patty
Must get some, Morrisons used to do onion bhaji pizza, I could use these to make my own.
Had two for lunch in warburtons pre-sliced rolls. Nothing extra, tasted lovely!
Nice one!
I agree it’s a gimmick, and I can’t imagine it on a burger bun like the serving suggestion, but they actually look really nice, especially with the mango chutney, and the price is very reasonable. I love bhajis, so I will give these a try the next time I am in Iceland.
Looks good no bad additives 👍👍
Interesting, could make an Indian inspired KFC tower burger with those. Garlic mayo on the bottom bun, salad, bhaji, tandoori or tikka chicken breast topped with mango chutney.
They used to sell these in the late 70s when Iceland was Bejam's. I used to eat them with Stilton cheese, peas pudding and grilled pigs liver.
Interesting combination Jim
That sounds great
@@annetteminett8500 Interesting? a culinary masterpiece. Had it for my 50th in 1978.
What a treat then Jim

They look ok, £2 ,not bad 50p ,Gareth recommends them ,might try these ✌️
Would love to see you review more fish products, like Mariner's Pie, Admiral's Pie, etc. Thanks for your videos Mr Foodie Guy!
Maybe one day
Me too. I love a good fish pie.
Saw these the other day on another channel, who also said they were good, so worth a punt, i think. Cheers Gaz 👍

50p per Bhaji is pretty cheap. I might pick some of these up next time I'm in Iceland. I think in a bun with maybe some lime pickle would be good.
Yep i shall give these a bash too next time i'm in there.
Enjoy Steve
had a look in my local iceland and they said they have not had any yet
An idea I've got in my head is:...one of these onion bhajis between two thin minted lamb patties, with mint yoghurt and mango chutney, all between a pair of paratha's 😋
Will have to try these. Where can I purchase that mango chutney Gareth, looks lush?
Sainsburys. £2.35p
Blimey £2 and from lceland Gareth looks good that go on list 😊good vlog 😊
Yes i must buy these lol Good review mate ,cheers
Thanks 👍

It’s been a while but I’m back…..these are a must try thank you!
Hope you enjoy
@@BaldFoodieGuy I will let you know
Why would they weigh more if frozen?
Love that brand of chutney.
I'm out forra ruby tonight, and this vid has given me a nice appetite! 😁👍
Enjoy your night out, cheers 🍻
Hi gareth, was wondering why do you never use the big oven? Ive only seen you use the airfrier and small oven
No don't use it well we do at Christmas
Think I'll try these,must be nice you ate the whole thing! Maybe have it with that pulled beef madras you tried. Nice one cheers 🍻
You're welcome 😊
Why not in a bun? I do it with haggis ( has to be McSweens) with melted cheddar and white onion
Gareth, Have you tried the crispy duck kit from Aldi?
Erm not sure. I have reviewed duck on the channel.
Love your videos. I am thinking of getting the same combination cooker that you have. Would you be able to cook them the same in that? You know the air fryer function?
Cheers
Will try them ,love bhajis
Hope you enjoy
These with one of Iceland's great curry's
If made correctly with gram flour that is sweet. Very easy to make at home are Bhaji treats even I can do them.
I'm going to try some of them
Specially with a curry
Love it the old pickle tray and popodoms never fails to show up , nice one Gav
Thanks 👍
When my Indian put up the price of the pickle tray to £3.95, my wife started taking a jar of mango chutney in her handbag and sneaking a few spoonfuls onto the plate when they weren't looking.
In the US as of now Poppadoms,and the pickles are a freebie ,when they realize that you are charged for them in the UK they will start charging here.😊
Ooh putting them on my list would go great on the side of their 3 for 6 quid curries with naan. Not a rice fan
Quite clean ingredients for Iceland
Very good they are pretty good with their ingredients on the whole.
I could live on onion bhaji 😋
Put it on top of a proper burger and eat them together. Yummy.
Mr BFG, yep! would recommend a "Paper Back Writer" . . . nice
It do look good. Crispy and tasty. (Next potato scallops (sliced potato in crispy batter) which we used to get for an old penny from the chippy......😂)
(437) This is a damn clever idea, actually. Wonder when they will start making the spiced potato patties, which are outrageously popular in India/Asia as well???
Obviously they tasted great. But an onion bhaji burger ? I don’t think so.
I may enjoy these as a side dish when having a curry. Along with some Bombay potatoes, some Saag Aloo and a selection of chutneys and dips.
Nice choice m8. 👍🏻👍🏻
This sort of thing is sold on the streets in India,and put on a European style buns,lots of people are vegetarians,or just poor.
Ok, I'll be trying them...
I'll be trying these tommorow.
I'm sure I could smell that Bhaji...😋
