Betty Bossi Veggie Sheet Slicer

We asked the question too – what’s a Veggie Sheet Slicer? Well, put simply, it cuts fruit and veg into super-thin sheets… Then comes question two – what am I going to do with them? More than you might imagine! Think veggie alternatives to pasta sheets in lasagne or cannelloni, or wide ribbons of apple for tartlets… yum! Making lighter versions of your favourite dishes is easy with Betty Bossi’s Veggie Sheet Slicer.

Makes thin sheets of veg

Courgettes, potatoes, beetroot, carrot… all these lovely raw veggies can be transformed into flat sheets that can be used to reinvent your favourite dishes. Try wide courgette strips instead of pasta in your lasagne; lovely layers of colourful veg in a gratin; rolled curls of apple topping your tartlets or a salad of rainbow-coloured beets that’s a feast for your eyes…

For lighter, lower-carb cooking

It can be an effort trying to eat well when all you’re faced with is a plate of lettuce, but a veggie sheeter will help you prepare interesting and inspiring dishes that you’ll actually want to stick your fork into. It’s a brilliant little device that’ll help you cut down on carbs and save a few calories – you’ll need little persuasion to ditch deep-fried chips for baked, crispy-edged potato roses, and you’ll barely even notice your pasta sheet has been swapped for something a little healthier. It’s a great way to sneak more goodness into food cooked for anyone who’s veggie-resistant, too… and we won’t tell if you don’t!

Super-simple to use

Try as you might, you’d never be able to create sheets like this using a knife – and you’ll be amazed at how easy it is once you have a go. Just trim the top and tail of your veg, pop it into the device, thread the skewer through, click the knob into the base then turn it to slice your fruit or veg; it’ll create a long, wide strip that you can cut to suit the dish you’re making.

The sharp stainless steel blade means that even hard veg is sliced easily, and the blade guard ensures it’s really safe to use.

Recipes included

As well as featuring really clear, simple-to-follow instructions, the included booklet has recipes for Potato Roses, Red Beets Carpaccio, Vegetable Gratin and Apple Tart, and there’s a QR code that can be scanned for even more recipes.

Takes pieces of veg up to 11cm L.
