Put it in a wide necked vacuum flask with boiling water and it cooks itself.

What quantities do you use please?

 

==================

and how long should it take done like this? I tried it last night: 1 cup of rice, 2 cups of boiling water, top on screwed it down tight, gave it a good shake every 4 to 5 minutes -  20 minutes later and the rice was still hard. so how long should it take (approximately)

tilda too, for us.

the stuff that comes in pouches.

as said before, made for microwaves but stir fries quickly and tastes lovely.

loads of different flavours as well as plain brown and plain white.

Try soaking your rice for about 10-15 minutes before cooking. Make sure you rinse it well too. Cooking only takes a matter of minutes, and cover your pan with a tea-towel. When it's just firm turn off heat but keep covered with the tea-towel. The steam will do the rest.

Or pre cook before your trip and freeze. Just put it into hot water for a couple of minutes when it's curry time
