Uncooked - Woolworths Select Oriental Fried Rice

Uncooked - Woolworths Select Oriental Fried Rice 120g AUD0.99

---

Julia's dad wanted to try this amazingly cheap dehydrated fried rice for AUD0.99. I wasn't too impressed with the 10 minute cooking time required. The instructions called for 10 minutes with 1.5 cups of water in the microwave or on the stove. I whacked it in the rice cooker :P

 

The results? Tasted as expected... like instant food. At least the texture of the rice was ok.

 

My other gripe was that it was supposed to serve 4. What I ended up was 1 slightly heaped bowl of rice, barely enough for a hungry teenager! Perhaps that's where eating habits differ. Asians will easily eat a bowl of rice with a few slices of meat, while Westerners will eat a few grains of rice with a slab of beef!

 

Just as well I got some takewaye BBQ pork and sausage! :)

 

(I can't be bothered writing out the ingredients, nutritional information etc. for this one...)
