I can never judge food quantities

I mean, I suppose that does look like quite a lot, I guess, but it reduces down when you cook it, doesn't it? What if it all boils away? What's that? Light steaming is never going to make anything boil away, you say? But that fish is going in the oven for half an hour, and once you've soaked the rice for a similar time it's all water anyway, right?

WRONG...
