‘Can’t wait to hear what our customers think’

“These gyozas are made by our Vietnamese chef who has 38 years of experience, with no compromise, these gyozas are the real deal,” James Fisher, M&S product development said in a statement sent to PBN.

“We follow the process by making sure there’s no moving away from the original recipe. Each filling is hand-worked in very small batches to caramelize the ingredients and bring out that incredible flavor, we knew we had to add these to the Plant Kitchen range and we can’t wait to hear what customers think.”

The No Chick’n Goyzas cost £2.50 for a 120g pack.
