Microwave pouches are not as good as freshly cooked, but if you can't be arsed getting out the rice cooker, then they fill a need. Ready in 90 secs/2 mins if you want the rice really soft. One pouch does one person with some sauce & veg & sardines/herring on top. The Aldi coconut, chilli & lime one is quite nice. Also their basic basmati and basic jasmine rice. I'm not a fan of the egg fried rice one - edible but not delicious. Good cupboard standby.

I’ve not owned a microwave since I blew the last one up about 15 years ago. Sorry Force, no nuked potat.
