Capsicana’s new range of

Latin Flavour meal kits

includes tailor-made spice

mixes to ensure the flavours

complement each other

perfectly. Chipotle and ancho

poblano chillis give a sweet,

smoky flavour to The Ultimate

Fajita Kit Mexican Chilli

& Honey salsa which pairs

beautifully with the cooking

sauce. The kits cost £3.60

each from Sainsbury’s

(sainsburys.co.uk).

Birds Eye Cod Fish Fingers,

£2.75 for a 280g pack

of 10, Morrisons

(groceries.morrisons.com)

While the crumb is satisfyingly

crunchy, the cod filling in these

fish fingers is quite bland

and the texture is rather

on the mushy side.

Young’s Cod Fish Fingers,

£2.30 for a 250g

pack of 10, Ocado

(ocado.com)

The outer crumb of these

is slightly lacking in crunch

but the fish has

a good texture and

delicate flavour.

Cod Fish Fingers,

£1.75 for a 300g pack

of 10, Tesco (tesco.com)

These may not be the most

appealing-looking fish fingers

in the group, but the cod here

is both moist and bright

white, while the

breadcrumb coating

is nice and crisp.

Taste The Difference Line Caught

Chunky Cod Fish Fingers,

£3.25 for a 480g pack of 8,

Sainsbury’s (sainsburys.co.uk)

A fresh and moist cod filling

makes these fish fingers

flavoursome and succulent.

The crumb is golden,

crunchy and nicely

seasoned, too.

BRITA has teamed up with UK

tea plantation Tregothnan to

come up with a quintessentially

available from Tregothnan

mental health charity Mind.
