TASTE TEST – 557 kcals, it says 390ml hot water – thought I’d measured it out OK, 8-minute soak, the potato had the consistency of apple sauce so I didn’t know if I’d put too much water in, also I discovered I hadn’t stirred it very well because there were some dry bits still at the sides. I stirred it a bit more and left it for another four minutes. Tasted absolutely gorgeous, beef tasted like beef, potato tasted like potato, it was just really lovely 9/10 for taste alone. The odd bit of beef not reconstituted but that could have been my fault, I’m ignoring it anyway – 9/10.
