Dad's can be extremely tricky to buy for, but if yours loves cooking up a storm in the kitchen, Aldi has the perfect offerings, at bargain prices!
Arriving on shelves from June 1, is a Cast Iron Roaster available in a selection of on-trend matte colours, including grey, green and blue.
The dishes are perfect for making Sunday roasts, or cooking pasta bakes and are priced at just £19.99.
In comparison, Le Creuset's roasting dish's retail for £62, making the Aldi buy over £40 cheaper.
Also hitting Aldi shelves in June is the 22cm Cast Iron Dutch Oven, which is also priced at £19.99.
The cooking pot is also available in grey, green and blue and is suitable for all ovens.
Aldi said: "Whether a seasoned chef or a weekend grill master, Dad can create everything from hearty stews to crusty breads.
"Available in a selection of NEW matte colours - grey, green, or blue, it's suitable for all stoves and is oven safe up to 250 degrees Celsius."
The Dutch oven is an absolute bargain, especially when compared with Le Creuset's Cast Iron Round Casserole dish, which retails for £209.
The Le Creuset product comes with a heat resistant knob and can be used in the oven, grill or on the hob.

Another bargain but that is bound to bring a smile to your dad's face on June 15th is the Drew & Cole Sandwich Maker.
The £24.99 Aldi bargain is the perfect tool for making toasted sandwiches with ease.
Simply add bread and your favourite fillings, such as ham and cheese, to the central cooking pan, add another slice of bread on top, and cook for five minutes.

When's the best time to shop at Aldi?
WHEN it comes to shopping at Aldi, the best time to do so depends on what you want to buy.
For reduced items - when shops open
Red sticker items are rare at Aldi's 830 UK stores, but the supermarket says that none of its food goes to waste so there are some to be found - if you're quick.
A spokesman for the supermarket said: "All items are reduced to 50 per cent of the recommend sales price before stores open on their best before or use by dates."
That means you have the best chance of finding reduced food items if you go into stores as soon as it opens.
Opening times vary by shop but a majority open from 7am or 8am. You can find your nearest store's times by using the supermarket's online shop finder tool.
For Specialbuys - Thursdays and Sundays
Specialbuys are Aldi's weekly collection of items that it doesn't normally sell, which can range from pizza ovens to power tools.
New stock comes into stores every Thursday and Sunday, so naturally, these are the best days to visit for the best one-off special deals.
For an even better chance of bagging the best items, head there for your local store's opening time.
Remember: once they're gone, they're gone, so if there's something you really want, visit as early as possible
Gadget loving dads will be jumping for joy after receiving Aldi's £24.99 Beer Dispenser.
The product, which quickly sold out last time it hit shelves, transforms ordinary canned beer into a draught experience, transforming your living room into the local pub.
Plus, it's £44 cheaper than a similar product sold on Amazon.
And if your dad is a sport fanatic, the £34.99 Golf Pong Set is bound to keep him entertained this Father's Day.
The kit contains a 6mm artificial putting green with non-slip backing, golf balls and hole covers.
It can be used both indoors and outside, and is guaranteed to provide hours of fun.

Aldi employee says £2.49 freezer item is 'best product in the supermarket'

Other shoppers have said that this products feel likes it's from Marks and Spencers or Waitrose. Named by Which? to be the UK's cheapest supermarket for the last four years, many Brits love heading down the shopping aisles of Aldi to swipe up some bargains. While selling all your must-have food essentials at decent prices, the supermarket is also known for its variety of home products, such as kitchen appliances and pilates machines. As the fourth largest supermarket in the UK, the German company also has a wide range of seasonal stock on offer that will get shoppers through the warm summer months. From bbq's to a range of fruity drinks and ice creams to keep us cool, shoppers will quickly find their own store favourites. ‌ For those who are regular Aldi shoppers, one employee has taken to TikTok to share the item he believes to be the 'best ever' product he has tried at the supermarket, reports the Mirror. ‌ Dylan McCormack has become popular on social media for making videos that highlight some of the products that the store has to offer every week. Many fans of his content also look forward to when he shares what is in the famous middle section of the supermarket. In a recent video, however, he chose to share with his followers what he believes is the best product in the entire supermarket. It also comes with the added bonus of being the perfect treat for summer. He said: "As you know, I work for Aldi. And the best products that I've ever tried at Aldi is in the freezer section. Once he arrived at the freezer section, the 25-year-old turned the camera to show off two flavours of gelato. He said: "It's hands down, the best product I've ever had from Aldi is the tiramisu gelato. Closely followed by the lemon meringue gelato." ‌ Price at £2.49 per tub in Aldi, these gelatos will offer shoppers a sweet and refreshing treat to help keep them cool as temperatures rise this month. He added: "They're absolutely stunning. Like, genuinely, these are so, so good. I could not recommend these any more. "If you've tried this new gelato in Aldi, let me know in the comments. Because I genuinely believe that this is fire." ‌ Many Aldi shoppers took to the comments section to share they that agreed with Dylan's assessment that the gelatos are the best product in the shop. One person said: "Not tried the gelato, but may have 'accidentally ' eaten half a tub of the chilled tiramisu in one go." Another person was intrigued to try the items, writing: "Will buy and try next time I go in." ‌ While a third shopper also added: "I knew it was going to be this when you said it! It feels like it's from Waitrose or M&S. I would love a pistachio one." However, other people had a different opinion on the best Aldi product. One person said: "King kebab is the best thing." While another TikTok user argued: "Wrong! The chicken spring rolls in the freezer section. Gimme." Another shopper stepped away from the freezer section and instead wrote: "The vanilla latte sachets .. 8 for just over a quid are unbeatable. Add half a spoon of coffee, dash of milk.

Brits trapped in Israel will be evacuated 'in hours not days' amid US attacks

The UK has been working on charter flights for Britons trapped in Israel with the airspace expected to reopen on Sunday afternoon so planes can safely enter the country Brits trapped in Israel will be evacuated in "hours, not days" amid rising conflict in the country, the business secretary has this morning announced. With the conflict between Israel and Iran ongoing, the UK has been working on charter flights for Britons in Israel. The country's airspace is currently closed, although it is expected to reopen on Sunday for repatriation flights. Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds told Sky News: 'We are in active conversations about chartering aircraft to get people out. That's not possible at the minute from Israel because airspace is, of course, closed.' Israel's airports authority said airspace would reopen from 11am to 5pm GMT (12pm to 6pm UK time) on Sunday for landings only. The airspace has been shut since June 13 and Mr Reynolds even suggested Brits could attempt to cross the border via land before returning to the UK. ‌ ‌ Asked if chartered flights would happen imminently, Mr Reynolds said: 'I believe our intention would be to do that as soon as possible… hours, not days. As well as that, if people are able to travel across land, we have rapid response teams on the Jordanian and the Egyptian borders. So people are traveling across land to countries where they could feasibly fly out on commercial aircraft.' The Foreign, Commonwealth Development Office (FCDO says all British Nationals who have already registered via the Register Your Presence portal will automatically be contacted and provided with a link to the booking portal. The FCDO is urging all those interested in flights back to the UK to register their presence now, if not done so already, so that they can receive details. Those with greatest need will be prioritised for flights and all passengers must hold a valid travel document. Non-British immediate family members will require valid visas/permission to enter or remain that was granted for more than six months. The FCDO will contact those who are allocated a seat on the flight directly and British Nationals should not make their way to the airport unless they are contacted. However those eligible for the flights will be expected to pay for their seat – and payment will be taken on registration via the flight booking form. This fee will be refunded to those who are not allocated a seat. This is in line with our approach to previous charter flights from the region. Meanwhile, commercial flights are continuing to operate from Egypt and Jordan, and international land border crossings to these countries remain open. ‌ An FCDO spokesperson said: "This is a perilous and volatile moment for the Middle East. The safety of British Nationals in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories continues to be our utmost priority – that's why the UK government is preparing flights to help those wanting to leave. 'Working closely with the Israeli authorities, our staff are continuing to work at pace to assist British Nationals on the ground and ensure they receive the support they need'. ‌ It comes after Donald Trump launched US air strikes on three of Iran's nuclear facilities overnight, including the Fordo facility, which is buried deep underground. US President Mr Trump said the key nuclear sites had been 'completely and fully obliterated'. Sir Keir Starmer urged Iran to return to negotiations and called the country's nuclear programme is a 'grave threat' which the US military action would 'alleviate'. There is understood to have been no UK involvement in the action, which comes after Sir Keir and Foreign Secretary David Lammy had pushed for a diplomatic solution rather than US action which could further destabilise the region. The Prime Minister said: 'Iran's nuclear programme is a grave threat to international security. Iran can never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon and the US has taken action to alleviate that threat. ‌ 'The situation in the Middle East remains volatile and stability in the region is a priority. We call on Iran to return to the negotiating table and reach a diplomatic solution to end this crisis.' Mr Reynolds added: 'We had proposed a diplomatic course of action, as other European countries have done. The Iranians had rejected that. And I know people will be waking up this morning and they'll be worried. They'll want to know what this means. ‌ 'And I do want to give them reassurance that whilst the British government, the UK, has not been involved in these attacks, we have been making extensive preparations for all eventualities, including how we look after British nationals in the region and how we get them out, and the assets we have in the region to protect British infrastructure, British bases, British personnel, if we need to do that. 'But from where we are now, what I think we need to do, as the President, I believe himself has said, is get back around the table. Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, but we need a diplomatic process to turn this round.' Iranian foreign minister Abbas Araghchi warned the attacks 'will have everlasting consequences' and that Tehran 'reserves all options' to retaliate. Iran launched a ballistic missile barrage against Israel in retaliation to the US action. The foreign ministry in Tehran issued a statement condemning 'the United States' brutal military aggression against Iran's peaceful nuclear facilities'. It added: 'The Islamic Republic of Iran is resolved to defend Iran's territory, sovereignty, security and people by all force and means against the United States' criminal aggression.'
