but like you say none of them taste as nice as take out rice .............probly coz home made is fresh haha

well stray I cocked up the boil in the bag last night-I didn't leave it on for long enough, it did look fluffy and nice in the bag-daughter had her home-made curry and the rice was a bit hard

i always leave me rice on longer cant stand it hard lyk your "supose" to have it like pasta and veg i like all mine cooked not al denta or whatever it is lol

Have you tried the Rustic chips Anne, I think they are McCain, they came out top in a trial. I don't usually have a problem, maybe the thermostat on your cooker is a bit wonky. I cook mine on those baking sheets you use on trays to save the mess, they are £1 from the Poundshop, lol surprise surprise.
Some chips and roast potatoes actually have a batter on them, did you realise?
Good luck, maybe better to use potatoes, I scrub new potatoes or small ones, and cook in water in a casserole, in the microwave, for about ten mins, drain them then put on one of those baking sheets on a baking tray, sprinkle a little olive oil over and cook as long as required, you can have them soft or crispy on the outside, depending on what you are cooking in with them. Much more healthy, the smaller the chip the more oil on them so more fattening.
