Good to know

What is the packet inside? An oxygen absorber (freshness sachet), a small white packet. It keeps the stew fresh in the pouch. Do not eat it. Take it out and throw it away before cooking.

Is it spicy? No. Ater Kik is mild and gentle, with warm turmeric and ginger. For a little kick, add 1 jalapeno (halved, seeds removed) in the last minute of cooking.
