    One of these, it does everything in minimum time, minimum fuss, minimum smell and minimum cleaning up afterwards. Ideal for curries:

    The first session with my PKP was a bit of a faff as it recommends heating with water first - but then you're off and away! It is so easy that even a lazy moo in the kitchen like me can master it. I get it out once a week, cook a curry / lentils and then 2 other boiled or steamed items eg chickpeas / potatoes / squash / rice etc . My soup maker also gets plenty of use.

    Leftovers go in the freezer - there's enough in there to have a selection for future use - and I don't have to give food a second thought. 
    No man is worth crawling on this earth.

    So much to read, so little time.
