Kebab Stew with Rice

REAL Turmat Kebab Stew with Rice is a freeze-dried kebab stew combining Norwegian chicken with rice in a rich, spiced sauce. Inspired by Middle Eastern cooking, it brings warm spices, bell pepper, baby corn, leek and onion together in a distinctive flavour. As a result, it is a satisfying and comforting meal after a long day outdoors.

Freeze-drying preserves the natural taste and texture of the chicken and sauce far better than conventional dehydration. Specifically, the process locks in flavour and nutrients at low temperature. What you rehydrate on the trail therefore closely matches the original dish.

The pouch is lightweight and compact, making it practical backpacking food when weight and pack space matter. Furthermore, preparation takes under 10 minutes. Add hot water to the line, stir and wait. Then eat directly from the pouch. No pot needed.

This freeze-dried kebab stew suits hiking, trail running, mountaineering and cycle touring. At 597 kcal per serving, it delivers solid energy for demanding days in the field. Moreover, the warm spice profile and tender chicken make it one of the more characterful meals in the REAL Turmat range.

The single-serve pouch format means no measuring, no washing up and no extra equipment. In addition, the spice level is approachable — bold enough to be interesting, mild enough for a wide range of tastes.

It is therefore a practical choice for solo hikers and mixed groups alike. Rice makes up 39% of the dish, providing a solid carbohydrate base for energy during and after outdoor activity.
