does anyone know when they will have more in?

hope they do

They may not get anymore in as I think they were from a big supermarket who had them on special offer, the labels have been removed as they were a special promotional price (that is what a member of another site was told).

As the offer was 100% extra on food I assumed it was ALL food but is seems it didn't include chocolate which is a disappointment.

That's it and they are quite nice so not bad for 5p.;)

The thing is with these offers is you ponder and wonder if you should buy more because of the cheap price but it could be a false economy if they taste like $*!?



So you decide to put in another order and get some more and they have all gone.

I am hoping as it says out of stock and not 'sold out' like some of the of the other products, they might get it back in stock

Add risotto to the pan
Stir risotto over a high heat for 45 secs to 1 min.
Season with pepper and serve

Hints and tips
Stir in more liquid for softer risotto.
Stir in less for firmer

HTH - I have made a lovely mushroom risotto with it using that method. It does take longer than they say to get the pack to separate and cook !

Yes, ignore the timings on the risotto, and also the amount of liquid. The ifrst time my DS cooked it according to instructions and it was inedible. Last night I cooked it by sight, adding more liquid and cooking for longer. It needed lots of salt and pepper to jazz it up, but it was OK, we shall be eating the rest of the HUGE pack!
