Cookbay Back-to-School Bundle · Your First Meal of Term｜Xiaomi Smart Rice Cooker 4L ＋ Supor Multi-Function Chopping Box ＋ Pull-String Garlic Chopper · A pot of rice and one dish is all it takes
Day one of cooking doesn't need ten utensils. It needs three things: a pot of rice cooked, a plate of something chopped, and a bit of minced garlic.
These three are that smallest possible kit. The rice cooker is a UK-spec Xiaomi original; the chopping box packs six blades into one case; and the garlic chopper minces with a few pulls of the string — no smacking with a knife flat, no garlic all over the worktop.
What the first meal could be
The simplest — a pot of white rice, smashed cucumber with garlic, a splash of soy and sesame oil. That's dinner on the day you land
Guangdong — cured-meat claypot-style rice: lay lap cheong and cured pork over the rice as it finishes, garlic scattered last
The Northeast · Shandong — shredded potato (a plateful in a minute with the box), garlic cucumber, garlic aubergine
Sichuan — garlic white pork, three-shred salad; the garlic is the soul of both
Jiangnan — Shanghai vegetable rice: greens chopped fine and cooked in with the rice
Xinjiang — polo: carrots and onion shredded, braised into the rice with lamb
Xiaomi Smart Multi-Function Rice Cooker 4L MFB090-2 (UK-spec original, official-channel stock, two-year UK warranty) — 4L feeds one person for three days, or four people in one sitting
Supor Multi-Function Chopping Box BGC6-KGF32AC11 — six blades, chops and drains in one box, carries straight to the table
Pull-String Garlic Chopper — a few pulls and the garlic's minced; no knife, no sticky fingers, quick to rinse
Why 4L and not 3L
4L cooks four portions at once — cook once, eat three times if you're on your own, no daily stove duty. If your flat takes turns cooking, or you batch-prep at weekends, 4L is the size that copes. Eating alone with no meal prep? The 3L in the Xiaomi Kitchen Trio is your one.
