The ingredients states 255g rice, is this the cooked or dried weight? And.. Has anyone tried it yet, is it tasty? X

Also it says 1.5 syns on extra easy, but not sure which ingredient these syns come from. Unless its the amount of ingredients ie chicken?

Hi Ellen.

It is dried rice for the quantity in the recipe.  The 1.5syns come from the Quorn sausages are they are no longer free.

HTH.  Enjoy if you are giving it a go.

Beautiful meal!! I added lime instead of lemon and a little sweetner, some paprika, cayenne pepper, crushed chilli, dried and ground corriander. As I also used brown rice it takes longer to cook, so instead of putting the chicken and sausages in with the other Ingredients( probably resulting in stringy chicken) I used my George Forman grill and added for the last 5mins. Very tasty. Definatly having this again. Highly recommend x
