A $5 ‘mini chopper’ from Aldi has been heralded a ‘genius invention’ by home cooks around the country, thanks to its ability to slice up any fruit or vegetable within seconds.

The gadget, which is part of Aldi’s Special Buys range this week, features three curved blades for ‘fast, even chopping and mincing’ – and it has been selling out since the launch.

‘This is a genius invention,’ one woman posted about the chopper on Facebook.

‘$5 from Aldi and it took me less than a minute to cut an onion and garlic, rather than at least five.

‘Definitely worth it, the best purchase I’ve made in a while,’ she said.  

Others have shown how they’ve used the mini chopper at home to create salads, chopped garlic and coriander and even biscuits.

They said it takes the hard work out of meal prepping.

‘Found this mini chopper today, I think it did a great job for the garlic and coriander,’ one commenter wrote.

Many are fans of the fact that the gadget also has a mixing and whipping attachment.

This means you can use it for baking and making a variety of dips and marinades.

Kmart’s $7 2-in-1 Chopper, released earlier this year, also sold well, because it made meal preparation that much easier.

‘I love mine so much I’ve bought another five as backups!,’ one shopper said.

Another posted: ‘The best new product since the pie maker!’
