The asparagus flavour is subtle enough to appeal even to those who dont usually enjoy it, and the dish rehydrates well, maintaining a satisfying texture. While a touch more salt could enhance the flavour, it remains a solid and nutritious option for varied palates.- Reviewed by Ultralight Outdoor GearFeaturesIngredients:Rice 51 %, palm fat, chicken 8.9 %, green asparagus 6.1 %, cream powder, apple, modified potato starch, salt, onion, flavouring, parsley, cayenne pepper.Preparations:1 – Tear off the top and fold out the bottom2 – Add 400 ml of boiling water (level H)3 – Stir4 – Re-seal, wait 10 minsAdd more water if requiredCan be prepared using cold water, extend the time to > 30 minsSpecificationsNutrition FactsPer mealEnergy639 kcalProtein21 gFat23 g- of which saturated11 gCarbohydrates86 g- of which sugar10 gFibre3.6 gSalt4.1 gPacket weight174 g
