10 Minute Mexican Meal with McCain Quick Cook French Fries
We are usually really busy, during the week we are running around with work, and on weekends we are catching up with housework while making the most of our time together. Life is non-stop, and sometimes we don’t have much time to prepare dinner, so I was delighted to find out about McCain’s new product.
We have previously tried McCain Chips 5% Fat, McCain Caribbean Wedges and McCain Hash Brown, and they were all lovely, so we were looking forward to trying their latest product: McCain Quick Cook French Fries. McCain has launched a brand new French fry which cooks in the oven from frozen in just 5 minutes – making them the perfect quick fix accompaniment for midweek dinners.
McCain French Fries have long been a favourite in households across the country, but the fast pace of everyday life means mum has less time than ever to serve up tasty, easy meals that the whole family enjoys. McCain Quick Cook French Fries, ready from the oven in just 5 minutes, are ideal for mums who are short on time but still want their family to enjoy a cooked meal when hungry mouths just won’t wait.
Quick Cook French Fries are cut from specially selected potatoes with just a splash of sunflower oil, making them naturally delicious. Keep a bag in the freezer as the perfect solution for a meal in minutes. They’re perfect to serve with omelettes, sandwiches or cold meats for a tasty five minute meal – meaning you’re guaranteed clean plates for tea every time.
McCain challenged us to make a 10 minute meal and we made a Mexican Meal with McCain Quick Cook French Fries. In order to make a Mexican Quick Cook French Fry Wrap, heat lashings of refried beans and prepare some Mexican spiced cooked chicken whilst your McCain Quick Cook French Fries are in the oven. Wrap them all up together in a tortilla with a drizzle of salsa, sour cream, your favourite veg and sprinkle with cheese.
I must say we were not sure whether the French fries would be ready by the time I sliced the vegetables but they were extremely quick. McCain Quick Cook French Fries only takes 5 minutes in a preheated oven and they taste crispy and delicious. We had a lovely meal, the whole family enjoyed it and commented how lovely the fries were. I will be stocking up on McCain Quick Cook French Fries on our next shopping trip.
McCain Quick Cook French Fries are available in stores from October 2013 and retails at £2.50 for a 750g pack.
