[NSW, ACT, QLD] 50% off Haldiram's Frozen Indian Food Variety (Samosas $5, Stuffed Parathas $3.25) @ Coles (In Selected Stores)

1150

The current Coles catalogue only lists Haldiram's Samosas as 1/2 price, but I was just in-store at West Ryde (NSW) and other products are 1/2 price as well. Not sure why the Coles website is displaying no frozen products for Haldiram's, even though they are definitely in-store.

Prices are the same as the excellent description in the previous deal.

  • Haldiram's Cocktail Samosa, 20 per pk, 500gm $4.50
  • Haldiram's Punjabi Samosa, 8 per pk, 650gm - $5
  • Haldiram's Hot & Spicy Samosa, 8 per pk, 650gm - $5
  • Haldiram's Aloo Paratha, 4 per pk, 400gm - $3.25
  • Haldiram's Paneer Onion Paratha, 4 per pk, 400gm - $3.25
  • Haldiram's Lachcha Paratha, 6 per pk, 360gm - $3.25
  • Haldiram's Aloo Tikki, 8 per pk, 420gm - $5
  • Haldiram's Masala Vada, 8 per pk, 283gm - $2.62
  • Haldiram's Onion Bhaji, 12 per pk, 283gm - $2.62
  • Haldiram's Spinach Pakora, 12 per pk, 283gm - $2.62

    Which ones?

  • Which sauce goes best with these?

    It's very good price but it's not as good as the one from Costco. It could be my personal preference!

    • it's not as good

      in what way?

      • Can't ask questions like that until they make up their mind.

        It could be my personal preference!

        All we know so far, is that it's in the running.

    The punjabi samosas (pictured) are amazing for what they are, nice kick to them too. Come out quite nicely in the air fryer.

    Can also vouch for the parathas, especially the paneer ones

    • I tried in an Air Fryer once.. I didnt come out good… how did u do it?

        The best result with Indian frozen snacks if you deep fry them straight from freezer

        I microwave first to defrost, then finish it off in the air fryer. Comes out crunchy. Hard to compare to deep fried but still very nice.

        • +1

          Microwaving first sounds like a good idea

          • +2

            @morediscount: Microwave at 70% power taking longer time, full power makes the coating soft. 4 samosas at 90 secs before baking in an oven at 180c

        I didnt come out good…

        I'm sure you didn't lol

      Completely agree! I picked up a bunch of these Haldirams branded frozen foods that were discounted in Coles while ago. Stuck them straight into Philips Airfryer and they all came out perfectly cooked and crispy. Well worth a go, especially trying all the included weird and wonderful sauces in the packs.

      • Let's not call Indian sauces weird. Some are definitely a 'miss' though.

        You've sold me on these Haldiram snacks, will give them a go!

    • I put it on Webber bbq on lowest setting for about 10 mins. Keep on turning and turns out great and crisp. Do them with paratas. I do have 2 high end air fryers but doing it on Webber is much quicker and can do a larger quantity for the entire family at one go and don’t have to pay for demand electricity charges doing in the evening.

      one of the worsts - all frozen indian snacks.

      ok….

      I never bought these frozen samosas or haldigrams ever in my life except the aalo paratha which is ok

      So you're declaring them the worst, after never having bought any… with 1 exception, which was OK…

      You're very confusing.

        sorry, what I meant was - Frozen breads are although bad (Due to preservatives and what not, eating something that's pre cooked or half cooked an year or two before, and had been to various temperatures during different commuting, and conditions), is still OK if you CAN NOT make a dough yourself which is just a 5-10 mins task. I was occassionaly using thi until I learnt and realized what kind of toxic I was eating by that means, I do doughs myself, fresh.

        And, regarding samosas or snacks, they are best consumed when fresh. Unlike frozen breads, any frozen snacks, is unpalatable, guess what: These typically are eaten fresh fried, or at a hot but edible temperature, any Indian snack like Mrukku, somosas, or whatsoever be it?!!! And I couldn't imagine eating those as a frozen one. I understand, you may heat up? you may fry (I don't know if thats the direction for that), but any "Snacks" that is "Frozen" is no good in my humble opinion. It is best, even if you grab from the stores although you don't know how hygeniec or what oil they use, but better than eating frozen. Best is to cook yourself. I myself am never eating any snacks although I am very young and have no issues, just trying to be clean eating, rarely I do eat out or grab from stores, a bit fresh.

        • First of all, not sure why you equate bread, samosas, murukku, 'snacks', as similar things that should not be frozen.

          I also do not think that making your own dough and cooking/baking it is 'just' a 5-10 minute task.

          Even if it was, if I want 2 slices of toast in the morning before work, I sure as hell am not waking up 10 minutes early to bake my own bread.

          The deal in this post are for Indian cooked 'snacks', and at half price is fantastic value.

          As a working adult who is time sensitive, again, if I want 4 or 5 samosas for night munchies, I am not gonna start making them from scratch or drive out to an Indian restaurant just to get a few pieces of food, that may or may not be overpriced.

          You can bet your sweet ass I will be tossing a few of these frozen wonders in the air fryer and munching on them 10 mins later.

    Hey, does anyone know how to support India and Brazil financially? We are living in a very fortunate country where Coronavirus cases are so low comparing to the rest of the world. Should we buy less and use the money to support those who need it?

      I've recently donated $100 USD to Khalsa Aid. They're a pretty good organisation and very active in helping the situation in India. Website and more details here

          you probably got negged by certain blind followers of 'You Know Who' ..if you know what I mean

    • Most of the major charities have emergency appeals for India - e.g. Unicef, Care, World Vision, Save the Children etc

    • Purchase products made there, to support their export business. It's about all they have.

    Thanks OP! Most of these are gluten free (may contain but who cares) so my coeliac partner is very happy when I come home with a bag of these.

      By definition, wouldn't your coeliac partner care?

      • Yeah I follow her lead on this one and she's cool with 'may contain'.

    Bought several items marked as 'medium' with a slight worry they would be spicy… turned out to be the most bland none spicy things we'd bought in years.

  • This brand is a very big renowned brand in India.

  • I tried this and found the shop bought ones are much nicer

    Any store in Victoria is selected?

  • Coles Australia Fair (QLD) had Punjabi and Hot & Spicy samosas tonight but there weren't many there.

    Roses are red, violets are crap, PS how can she slap.

  • The Onion Bhajis are also great (if done in the deep fryer). I've tried making them from scratch, and they are okay (and cheaper), but not as good as these. I've also found them better than Raj's Corner.
    The Spinach Pakoras are also delicious, as well as the stuffed Potato Balls.

  • I think this is only in NSW. In Victoria Sabrini & Vadilal is ½ price.

    • +1

      It'a in Qld too.

  • Bad news. I think Coles are discontinuing their frozen stuff.
