  • More Maggi Meals

    I happily purchased a wide range of Maggi products after reading the reviews by the wonderful Mom’s community members on these products. I decided to test out many of the recipes on the always hungry family. Maggi has now become a favourite in our household. The request now is for “More Maggi Meals Please”.

  • Has been repeated in our house already!

    I loved both the Maggi one pan risottos. So easy to use as you can add the liquid & then do other things while it cooks itself. It tastes great without having to stand over the pan for the entire cooking process. We have repeated this recipe multiple times in our house already.

  • RESTAURANT STYLE RISOTTO

    I love risotto but I never cooked it at home simply because I have never had the confidence to cook it. When the Maggi One Pan Risotto Recipe Base arrived on my doorstep, I was excited to try it out. With the recipe base, I just could not believe that it was that easy to cook a risotto right there in my own kitchen! The risotto was moist and creamy with full flavour. My family is not keen on risottos but even they found it tasty. I must confess though that I didn't use leek but used baby peas and spinach instead. With this experience, I will now make sure that my pantry will have at least 1 pack of the risotto recipe base at any time.

    I always thought risotto was a complicated dish! Maggi made it simple. Great ingredients my kids came back for more, a dish the whole family enjoyed. Great that it is made in the one pot so not so much washing up! Will definitely have this again and recommend to friends and family. Thanks for letting me trial Maggi Risotto

  • Fantastic & easy

    Another fantastic product that was easy for the children to help with, we used prawns instead of chicken and the children loved making it as we'll as eating it. They also made a crunchy salad to go with it which made it a healthy meal for the whole family, will definitely have it again.

  • Chicken Risotto with Spinach and Pumpkin

    We actually received the Chicken Risotto with Spinach and Pumpkin. We all loved it, this is now a staple in our shopping and cooking, easy to use and oh so delicious. I actually had no pumpkin but used sweet potato instead and was still delicious

  • Delicious!!!

    By far the best product maggi has has ever created! I will be buying this every week! My husband loves it too as do the little ones! I precooked the rice to half way before adding it to the rest of the mixture, it knocked off half of the cooking time and it was still lovely and moist without being too dried out or there being any risk of uncooked rice which I have a problem with usually when I make risotto.

    I love Risotto, but have always been too scared to cook it, and having to constantly watch it. This recipe base iso so easy to follow, and is unbelievably yummy.

  • Quick and so easy to prepare!

    I bought this product at the supermarket after trying the Maggi one pan dinner risotto with the pumpkin and baby spinach that you add the chicken to [ I was given this via mom to review.]This one with the leek and mushroom was equally as nice to eat and very tasty. It is such a handy item to have in your pantry for those quick delicious meals and the great thing about this risotto is that you use only one pan so no huge piles of washing up!

  • Please FUSSY eaters!

    I have a rarely fussy little boy, and he loves the risotto, despite not eating rice. I was especially pleased that my partner ate it, and it is ridiculously hard to give him something he doesn't pick at. It was easy to prepare, and I didn't have to stand over it the whole time. The flavors are amazing, and definitely unexpected from a packet mix.


  • handy in pantry and easy to use

    I was cooking chicken and mushrooms other day and put in rice uncooked and packet of risotto mix and lit milk let it simmer was delicious and easy to do. Like packets of mixes in my cupboard it is true. To add a different flavour and something new

  • Hungry Teenagers - Check

    These have been a great alternative to the noodles standby. Definitely a favourite with the time poor, high energy Uni student. The need to have have instant food, instantly available, is never ending in our household. I was tempted to give this a try and now it is a firm favourite. It is filling and nutritious, and makes a great base for other ingredients. It now has a permanent place in our pantry.

  • Maggi One Pan Chicken, Leek, and Mushroom

    This was super easy to make, but not nearly as tasty as I hoped. This is a dish I think I would prefer to make from scratch, using alot more fresh ingrediants. On the flip side, it's definately quicker to cook the risotto with the Maggi packet on a weeknight after work, so much easier to get the meal in front of the kids than if they have to wait.

    My husband is not a big fan of rice dishes but, he really enjoys the taste of Maggi One Pan Chicken, Leek and Mushroom Risotto. I like that it's easy to use and I know that the whole family will enjoy it. A great, quick meal to get onto the the dinner table when you are time poor,

  • Surprisingly tasty

    At first glance I was a little underwhelmed. It didn't appear to be anything I wouldn't ordinarily make myself... The end result however was incredibly tasty. Sophisticated enough for a foodie adult, but not overwhelming for my 3yo who wolfed his down. Great addition to the cupboard for days where inspiration is lacking.

  • Converted

    For a quick, easy and tasty meal MAGGI ONE PAN CHICKEN, LEEK & MUSHROOM RISOTTO ticks all the boxes. I usually like to make my meals from scratch but use packet mixes when I'm feeling a bit slack. This was a simple way to make risotto and I have to admit, I'll probably make risotto like this from now on.

  • Simple easy qUICK

    A winner for our family, I have never attempted a risotto before thinking it was all too hard but with this pouch it was a cinch. Tasted great and the rice was cooked to perfection. The kids who are usually really picky eaters finished their plates which was great to see. I have added this to my shopping list as a staple now for the pantry. It will also be handy when extra guests pop in for dinner as it certainly makes a fair amount.

  • I can now cook Risotto!

    When I first received this product, I thought "I'll never make this - risotto is too hard". I put off making it for a few days, but when I did I was pleasantly surprised! It was so easy and tasted great. I don't normally make packet stuff because the tasted is usually bland, but this was really nice! I loved that it was all in the one pot. I will definitely buy this in the future.

    I took a photo to share but the file size was too big :(

  • Yep I’ve been a member of purkle for years but don’t get much these days on it to be honest compared to what I used to het

    Reply

  • Thank you for sharing this. I hadn’t hear of Purkle! Being a single mum and only working part time means every extra dollar is handy. I enjoy doing surveys and reviews in my downtime anyway, so I might as well earn while doing it! I’ve just joined, so hopefully it will be a good experience.

  • This is so helpful thank you so much for this entry! It was very helpful since I think we all need a side hustle in todays economy. Especially women who do parenting at the same time while working full-time, I appreciate you all and you are doing an amazing job!

  • i love sweet potato and this one looks delicious. i think even not including dairy (fore dairyfree people like me) it would still be delicious! 🍠

  • Tried it before and it’s definitely one of the better companies to do surveys with. They make it so easy, the website is easy to navigate and the surveys are generally not too long. It’s easy to do whilst on the couch or filling in time! Definitely worth checking out to earn some extra cash.

    Reply

  • Purkle is fun! Not a lot to earn from but if you like filling up surveys or voicing ypir opinions, it is definitely worth a try. Sometimes there are survey on music which are the most fun ones and also, these are the ones that reward the most. Not bad to earn a gift card or 2 in a year!

    Reply

  • I love Purkle. While the surveys don’t award massive sums, the surveys themselves are never long. Other platforms want a minimum of 10 minutes which can be hard to commit to during day time chaos. It doesn’t take long to accumulate a decent sum, and I use gift cards as a way to treat myself. They can be redeemed for grocery gift cards. I’ve cashed out over $200 in a year and a half. Give it a go!

    Reply

  • I’ve been with Purkle for a few years now. One of my favourite survey and money earning platforms. Easy to build up a balance and redeem your earnings. Love sitting down and completing my purkle surveys, to see balance grow. I use this to treat myself or put towards presents for Christmas

    Reply

  • I’m not having any luck with purkle. I tried to sign up for it and it just wasn’t working so I emailed them and didn’t hear back, I just tried again now and managed to create an account but then the activation email contained no link to click and actually activate my account. From the comments here it looks like I’m not missing anything anyway

    Reply

  • I’ve earnt a bit through Purkle and other survey sites. They are great passive income. I don’t mind that Purkle pays in gift cards as it provides a great opportunity for me to buy something for myself as opposed to putting cash away for expenses. But cash is always good!

    Reply

  • Surveys have been great to keep me awake while feeding my newborn at night but I agree with some of the comments that the time commitment is too high for the benefit. I do not believe i will continue using it once baby starts to sleep through and get through feeds quicker.

    Reply

  • I tried Purkle for approx 1 year and quite frankly it’s really not worth your time
    Very few surveys and very low amounts paid
    Worst thing is it only pays in gift cards so no cash
    I gave up and just stuck with my original survey site that I’ve been using for years
    It makes me $120 average in PayPal a week without too much effort and supplies the family with an annual holiday without touching the household budget

    Reply

  • It’s a shame I’m already a member and can’t enter the competition. Surveys in general – including Purkle – can be a good way to earn some money, but just remember you won’t earn much from any one survey. It does add up over time though, and isn’t particularly difficult to do.

    Reply

  • This is a nice way to earn a bit extra money but you won’t earn a lot. Some surveys time out too which is annoying or hey just stop working half way through. If you have spare time and want to do it then why not. I sometimes do these on the train on my way to work and it slowly builds up to allow you to get a reward. It all helps.

    Reply

  • I joined Purkle ages ago but to be honest I have never used it and totally forgot that I joined let alone that I could be earning money and points while being at home. Any opportunity to make some money and try to help financially, off I go to rejoin I think!

    Reply

  • I have joined up and hope to gain some bonuses. I realise it won’t be a lot but it’s good to know from genuine people on here that have been part of purkle that it is a real site. So many scams out there so good to know this isn’t one of them.

    Reply

  • Purkle is a great surveys site. I’ve redeemed vouchers from there. You’re not going to make a fortune from it but you do definitely earn for your time. I haven’t done any for a while as I just haven’t had rhe time but I’ll definitely get back into it. The vouchers always come in handy.

    Reply

  • The inner sceptic in me will prevent me signing up! I’m not against a survey, however I would rather do one here and there when I can with the incentive of winning something big! Even a $100 voucher. At the rate I win, it works out better than signing up for this.
