Indulge in Asda’s new authentic flavours such as Salmon Fillet in Tamarind, Malaysian-style Chicken Sambal and Sweet Potato & Red Pepper Dhansk.
Snack and share - Asda’s Great-To-Share snacking range launches on May 10th, so pick any 3 items for £5 for a great value family picnic in the back garden before the game.
