An alternative to a spiralizer is a julienne peeler – these are widely available and can create long thin strands of veg, but you won't get the same classic 'curl' of a courgetti noodle. Editorial independence means being able to give an unbiased verdict about a product or company, with the avoidance of conflicts of interest. As well as interchangeable blades, this manual spiralizer also has non-slip feet and an easy-turn handle to make shredding veggies a breeze. While they don't have the fluffiness of traditional waffles, they do offer an interesting texture, and the natural sugar in the sweet potatoes gives them a special sweetness.

It’s perfect for beginner cooks or those who lack confidence in the kitchen but still want to have a few healthy recipes on hand. The exception to this is handheld spiralizers, which cost a little less – and have fewer features as a result – but we’ll come back to that later. The non-slip grip means it’s comfortable to hold and fairly easy to use, although you’ll need to exert a bit more effort for harder vegetables like carrots. If it is industrial quality you want, it’s what you’ll get with this very minimalistic stainless-steel spiralizer. It’s also worth bearing in mind that bigger bowls can be more of a faff to clean by hand or may be awkward to fit in the dishwasher.Download to get full access to our product range, watch how-to videos and get notified of our latest offers on your phone or tablet. Gently pushing it towards the blade, it produced consistent swirls of vegetable that collected in the beaker below. Though your only twirly options are simple spirals and ribbon shapes, this is the perfect tool for the lazier chef who doesn’t need much more variety to make their favourite veggie noodles. The only real issue is the amount of kit can be overwhelming at first, so make time to watch the demo videos, as well as read the booklet in the box.

Those who have been spiralizing for a while now will understand the need for true variety, and this ten-blade model certainly provides the goods.

The Sprializer Express by Morphy Richards allows you tospiralize a variety of fruit and vegetables including courgette, sweet potato, cucumber and carrot with a minimal amount of time and effort, producing great results every time.
