You can grate veg instead of chopping to make it cook faster and use less prep space, buy pre chopped or use frozen veg to avoid chopping at all.
If you have no rice cooker an electric frypan or a normal skillet does fine

Iâve got a rice cooker but I would die without it (itâs old and second hand but a good brand), donât want to risk somehow messing it up with anything fancier than takikomi gohan in it once in a while.
With one pot meals, I donât mind making rice separately to that - one big batch is worth cleaning the rice cooker pot and inserts for (and I never washed them in the dishwasher so Iâm used to doing that by hand, at least).

Thatâs valid. I even used to make one pot meals in a basic saucepan. Maybe you can get one you donât really care about from the op shop and donate it back when you move.
Making separate rice and viands means there will be enough for a few meals which reduces washing.
Storage is annoying⌠I found saucepans can fit in the oven for storage but I had to take the lids off (as I left the oven racks in). You can hang pots as well
