How to Use Gochujang Paste
I decided to use the Gochujang paste in a ground beef and vegetable stirfry mixed with some left over rice.
It was a simple, unimpressive operation - Just bought some ground beef at Lidl as well as their frozen asian vegetable mix and cooked them up in our stainless steel pan along with the bit of leftover white rice that was hanging out in the fridge.

Added some generous squeezes of the Gochujang paste to the mix and tossed into a bowl. I actually didn't find it too spicy so I added a little extra swirl in my bowl.

I enjoyed this little Korean culinary diversion. I think it's really fun that Lidl brings such a wide range of internationally inspired products throughout the year. So even if you can't travel, you can always travel through food. ;)

How to cook frozen chicken wings in the air fryer
| Can you cook frozen chicken wings in the air fryer? Of course you can! We just used the convection oven temperature recommendation of 180C (~350F) and started checking them after 15 minutes. At that time we temped them using an instant read meat thermometer and flipped them over for a few more minutes. How many chicken wings fit in an air fryer? In our air fryer, 10 wings fit comfortably at a time. |  Chicken Wings in Air Fryer Basket |
Lidl Vitasia Asian Curry Chicken WIngs Review
| For an easy midweek meal or late night snack, frozen wings can be a great choice to get some protein in. Making them in the air fryer is easy and healthier than deep frying. Overall we thought these were good, but occasionally found 'weird bits' or broken bones which we didn't love. The curry flavor is nice to shake things up a bit. 10 wings is a decent amount, but not quite enough for 2 people. Maybe I could have crammed some more in, but I wanted to leave room for the air to circulate and get some color and crisp. Pro Tip: Cook one round of chicken wings in the air fryer, then after you plate them, toss a second round in. They'll be cooked right when you're wishing you had more! ;) |  Asia Curry Flavored Chicken Wing Dings |

When you peel back the foil lid of the lassi containers you reveal a plastic seal with an opening to drink out of! This design worked great!
To recycle this package you remove the outer cardboard layer which is the label of this product and put it in the blue recycling bin, then you can put the plastic cup along with the foil lid in the yellow recycling bin which is for plastic and metal. :)

Vitasia Indian Style Lassi Review
We loved these Lassis! The flavor and texture were great on both, nice and creamy, and if you have never had a lassi before and don't plan to visit an Indian restaurant to order one, I think these are a solid introduction. Mango Lassi is very traditional and we did prefer it over the pineapple coconut edition.
| Still, if you love Piña coladas you'll love the pineapple-coconut lassi too! The coconut flavor is prominent so you must love coconut to enjoy this beverage. Lassis are a yogurt based beverage popular in India so if you're feeling exotic why not swing by your local Lidl and see if you can still nab one of these delights?! |  Mango Lassi with Salmon Salad |
COST: .99 EURO

Lidl Review: VITASIA ASIA STYLE GYOZA SPICY PORK AND KIMCHI FILLING
Carrying on from the Meat and Ginger Dim Sum Review, we also snagged these frozen Gyoza from Lidl.
Cooking Instructions: VITASIA ASIA STYLE GYOZA SPICY PORK AND KIMCHI FILLING
Okay so the package gave loads of ways to cook these gyoza, but I was looking for the most hands off version which for me was the oven option. The instructions were to put the sauce of your choice on the gyoza (I guess with a brush like this) and put them in the oven at 200 celsius for 15 minutes.
Btw, 200 C is approximately 400 degrees F.
Btw, 200 C is approximately 400 degrees F.
Modo de preparação:
Não descongelar o produto antes da preparação.
- Na frigideira: adicionar um pouco de óleo à frigideia, juntar o produto e fritar em lume médio durante 2 minutos até que a parte de baixo atinja uma tonalidade dourada. Acrescentar um pouco de água e cozinhar o produto durante mais 3 minutos.
- Na panela a vapor: adicionar um pouco de água à panela e aquecer. Assim que a água começar a ferver, colocar o produto na panela a vapor e cozinhar durante 6-10 minutos.
- Na fritadeira: aquecer a quantidade necessária de óleo, de forma a que o produto fique coberto ao fritar. Aquecer o óleo a 160°C, colocar o produto congelado e fritar durante aprox. 3 minutos.
- No forno: pincelar o produto com um molho à escolha e cozinhar a 200 °C durante 15 minutos.
- Na fritadeira de ar quente: cozinhar o produto durante 8-12 minutos a 180 °C. Virar a meio do tempo.
- Na panela: cozer o produto durante 3 minutos em água.
I really didn't have any sauce in mind so I just laid them in a single layer on a Nordic Ware quarter sheet tray and spritzed them with some spray oil and popped them in.
While I didn't find the Kimchi flavor to be as pronounced as expected, overall I thought these were super tasty and I would definitely get them again. I believe the package had about 20 gyoza inside.
Between these Gyoza and the Dim Sum at Lidl, the Gyoza were the clear winner for us!

Lidl Review: Vitasia Chinese Style Dim Sum with Meat and Ginger
This week there were loads of interesting Asian foods in the local Lidl so we decided to try a few including this package of Dim Sum, frozen Gyoza, and Indian Lassi.
Cooking Instructions: VITASIA CHINESE STYLE DIM SUM WITH MEAT AND GINGER
You have 3 options
- In a pan - cook with plenty of salted water for 4 minutes under low heat, turning them carefully. Drain and serve with the sauce of your choice.
- In a steamer - Steam for 5-6 minutes, drain and serve with sauce of your choice.
- In a frying pan - Fry the dim sum in hot oil for 1-2 minutes. Drain and serve with sauce to taste.
Tap the photo below for nutritional information of Lidl's Dim Sum.
Modo de PREPARAÇÃO
- Na panela: cozer o produto em água abundante com sal durante 4 minutos em lume brando, virando cuidadosamente. Escorrer e servir com um molho a gosto.
- Na panela a vapor: cozer o produto durante 5-6 minutos. Escorrer e servir com um molho a gosto.
- Na frigideira: fritar o produto em óleo quente durante 1-2 minutos, escorrer e servir com um molho a gosto.
We opted to prepare them via the first method and then I wanted to fry them off a bit after they were cooked with some toasted sesame oil. I quickly aborted that mission as they were sticking to the pan I was using (whoops, forgot to let it get back up to temp first - rookie move) and proceeded to plate.
I really wasn't sure what molho (sauce) I would want with "meat and ginger" Dim Sum, so besides the toasted sesame oil, we had a splash of soy sauce.
| What did you think of the Dim Sum we had the other night? "They were mediocre, I guess." How would you describe them? "Soft, meaty - there was some sort of filling in there. I don't know what it was..." I think that about sums it up. No pun intended. Seriously. :p |  Tramontina Pan |
The filling was very smooth and processed and made for a lack of variety in texture imo. If you could deep fry these puppies maybe it would be better. I was impressed by how gingery they were, though.
For us, these were a pass. They were fine, it was an easy little snack after a midweek meeting, but nothing I would seek out again.

VITASIA CHINESE STYLE DIM SUM WITH MEAT AND GINGER Ingredients
The Dim Sum contained 60% filling which was a combination of beef and pork meat along with onion, carrot, rosemary, garlic, nutmeg, salt, and wine. The filling also contained potato, mozzarella cheese (what?!) .6% ginger, and pepper. The other 40% was the dough made of wheat flour and water.
Cost: 1.99 euro
