Very quick in giving me the rice to cook (8)
I believe the answer is:
meteoric
'very quick' is the definition.
'meteoric' can be an answer for 'quick' (thesaurus). I am not certain of the 'very' bit.
'giving me the rice to cook' is the wordplay.
'giving' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'cook' indicates anagramming the letters.
'rice'+'to'='riceto'
'riceto' anagrammed gives 'teoric'.
'me'+'teoric' is 'METEORIC'.
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for meteoric that I've seen before include "flashing!" , "moving at high speed" , "Spectacularly fast" , "Fast; brilliant" , "Remarkably rapid" .)
