We’re already in the latter half of August, but the hot days are still going strong. There are times when the lingering summer heat makes cooking feel like a chore, but on those days, frozen foods can be a quick and easy solution! This time, we’d like to introduce a frozen Western-style dish from Seven-Eleven.
Tomato Sauce Risotto
A little while ago, on Tuesday, August 6, 2024, 7-Eleven launched “Tomato Sauce Risotto” (397 yen including tax).

This frozen food from the Seven Premium brand is described as “Tomato Sauce Risotto with lots of cheese.” It’s a straightforward product description.
Incidentally, the container is quite deep.

A simple-flavored risotto
Cooking time is approximately 6 minutes at 500W, 5 minutes at 600W, and 2 minutes at 1500W in a microwave oven.

Peel back the lid slightly and microwave it for the recommended time, and it’s ready! No need for additional heating—it’s hot and ready to serve.

There isn’t much, but it does contain small pieces of bacon.


The rice is colored with turmeric.

The rice, which absorbs the flavors of chicken and vegetables, is fluffy and pairs well with the tomato-flavored sauce that has a hint of sourness, and the creamy cheese that melts smoothly.
Although the taste is as simple as it looks, it is truly a delicious dish.
Conclusion
I wasn’t completely full with just this, so I think adding a salad or soup would make it much more satisfying.
Since it’s a frozen food that can be stored for a long time, why not buy one to keep on hand?
