      Yeah I meant fresh rice with defrosted/reheated sides. Not a fan of any other rice myself, but it’s the most versatile carb imo.

      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.
