One of the best tasting frozen meals around. The sliced carrots are especially tender and the mashed potato is just right. The lamb cutlet was quite tasty and made a nice overall meal along with the peas, carrots, and mashed potato.
Was so looking forward to a “lamb cutlet” but what I got was a cutlet shaped lamb pattie….. very disappointing
Veggies were nice but overall wasn’t what I believed I was buying
Some of the McCain meals are quite good. Unfortunately this is not one of them. The one time I tried it, the meal was VERY watery and blend with next to no taste at all. I don’t expect much from a frozen meal but this was highly disappointing. Will never have again.
No, I didn’t enjoy this product. The flavour was bland, and the vegetables were soggy (expected though when using the microwave). The lamb cutlet was okay, but would have preferred less crumb and possible a second cutlet. The convenience is the only reason this is getting a 2.5 stars.
I found when I tried the lamb cutlet it seemed more like a really compacted rissoles than lamb. Didn’t have the bite to if that I would expect if I cooked cutlets fresh. It’s a pretty bland meal, you only really get flavour from the gravy.
My husband loves this frozen meal. It has plenty of flavour and doesn’t taste too bad at all for a quick, convenient frozen meal. Its also a good size.
Quite nice meal! This product is very convenient to keep in the back of the fridge for a quick, last minute dinner or for my children to make themselves.
These frozen dinners are really expensive so you definitely can’t afford to eat them all the time. The quality is quite good but not as good as home cooked. But hits the spot when pushed
This was not very appetising at all. I followed the directions and some of the lamb cutlet went dry and hard as a rock, while the rest of it was fine. The potato was nice and the peas were okay, but the carrot was also a bit dry and chewy.
Unless you get these when they are on special they are expensive and not as tasty as other brands.
You need to be careful not to heat it for too long or the lamb dries around the edges
Whether it is cooked via oven or microwave, I find that the McCain’s lamb cutlet always turns out extremely dry, to the point that it is mostly crumb. The veggies are good and the gravy is nice, but the consistency of the lamb needs to be reviewed
I’m not a fan of these type of ‘complete ready meals’. The veggies are usually too hard, the potatoes chewy, the gravy a bit of a globular mass and the meat too processed. This particular one fits all of the above!
When did a lamb cutlet become a sausage meat mince . I’m sure it was a proper cutlet last time I bought it. Won’t buy it again. The vegetables were nice but that was about it.
These are such tiny tiny overpriced meals. The carrots never reheat well, and are always watery. You can have a food delivery service for the same price now. DOes not re-heat well.
I buy this every grocery shop for my hubby!! It’s his favourite from the range and works late one night a week so I always have them on hand as an easy meal option when he isn’t home. I stick up when they have specials!!
I used to nearly live on these when I first moved out of home, they were pretty good for someone who didn’t cook. Then I had a family and cooked my own meals. Now the kids have moved out, I’ve occasionally started buying these agsin and am happy to say they’re still pretty good
Love the McCain dinners the lamb and cutlet gravy is fantastic taste great even for a frozen dinner great for those times your alone and what something yum and can’t be bothered preparing great to have some on hand
Ive always steered cleared of tv dinners so was suprised when my partner brought the lamb cutlet dinner home one night. The lamb was trnder and cooked just right while the vegetables tasted fresh and healthy
