    With great rice, comes great responsibility.


    Or... something to that effect.

    Depends on the size of the bag. There's two portions in a 250g bag.

    Not enough rice for the price?


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,268 ✭✭✭AllForIt


    I bought one of those precooked bags of rice recently, (something I rarely eat as it is a starchy carb that helps pile on the pounds), specifically because the portion is small(ish) where if I bought a uncooked bag I'd make way too much and scoff the lot in no time.

    So I for one am glad the portions size is small is the point.

    What's a wok?
    A wok is a versatile round-bottomed cooking vessel, originating from China. The use of the wok is very prevalent in South China (particularly Guangdong Province). It is one of the most common cooking utensils in China and also found in parts of East, South and Southeast Asia, as well as becoming a popular niche cookware in all the world. They're used in a range of different Chinese cooking techniques, including stir frying, steaming, pan frying, deep frying, poaching, boiling, braising, searing, stewing, making soup, smoking and roasting nuts. Wok cooking is done with long-handled utensils called chahn (spatula) or hoak (ladle). The long handles of these utensils allow cooks to work with the food without burning their hands.

    I think he meant riceist.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.
