Not only can you lather on your roast potatoes, but you can also use it to baste meat while roasting too. You could also add a small amount to your sauces, or use when frying things like French fries, potato chips, and chicken. A shopper showed this week how they spotted the deal at Aldi in Portsmouth.
Taking to the Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, they uploaded a photo showing the discounted jars in the supermarket. They added that the jars were showing best before July 2026, meaning you aren’t in a rush to use it up right away. However, it could be the perfect addition to a Sunday roast this chilly January.
Many shoppers seemed keen to stock up on the fancy dripping at the purse-friendly price. The Facebook post has racked up numerous likes and comments from food lovers and bargain hunters. One person wrote: “I’ll try get in tomorrow.”. Another added: “I made my roasties with this on xmas day. OMG !!! They were absolutely delicious.
“There was an actual scramble going on for them.”The initial poster revealed they had bought it for Christmas but it has now become a staple item for their Sunday roasts. They replied: “Had it on our roasties every weekend since. At 29p I stocked up.”.
