I miei menu da 30 minuti

Allow me to doubt the 30 minutes or, if those are really possible, maybe find a new place to have the actual meal, 'cos the kitchen sure as hell cannot be used for a while.. Most of the recipes are based on pasta, rice or potatoes, while I would have liked to see more vegetable side dishes. Also, ma Leggi tutto

I was completely unaware of the Naked Chef until I picked up this gorgeous cookbook at the library. Apparently, he's been on tv for years...lol. The food is gorgeous, healthy, substantial. However, there's no way that these are "quick, throw-together" recipes. At least one ingredient in each recipe i Leggi tutto

This cookbook has an interesting concept. It includes the recipes and shows you how to use your time to prepare the individual dishes so a complete, rather impressive meal is ready all at once. This is not a bad idea in theory. In practice, it is tricky, because you may want to have an individual di Leggi tutto

When I purchased this book in Australia it was called "30 Minute Meals". I daresay the title is misleading which could well be the reason why it's appearing here under a different name. This is a book full of appetising recipes and I have cooked several of them with very good outcomes. I consider mys Leggi tutto

This book really helped me get some more interesting foods into my diet! When I was working 11 hour shifts, I didn't have much time for food prep. So I picked up this book. With practise, it is possible to do the recipes within 30 minutes, providing you have all the equipment. (Jamie makes a note of Leggi tutto

OK, so you might not cook the meals in 30 minutes. Who cares!? OK, he cheated, the 30 minutes doesn't include cleaning all the crap off of your kitchen surface and chopping up all the ingredients. Who Cares? I still have the zing of chilli on my lips after having the Satay Chicken with fiery noodle s Leggi tutto

Maybe I am being rash by giving this cook book 2 stars. It's not bad per se. In my mind, cook books should be rated based on 3 things. They are, "Am I inspired to cook after reading this book?","How many of the recipes in this book interested me and how likely am I to cook them?" and finally "How di Leggi tutto

I admit it, I love Jamie Oliver's philosophy of cooking and methods of presenting, as well as his efforts to make food preparation fun and easy for normal folk. His books just get better and better. Spectacular pics. Great recipes. Easy prep. If the recipe doesn't work for you, find one that does. H Leggi tutto

Ich habe mir das Buch gekauft, weil ich die Fernsehserie Jamies 30 Minuten-Menüs sooo genial finde. In exakt 30 Minuten fabriziert Jamie dort ganze Menüs live und ohne doppelten Boden (z.B. vorbereitete Sachen). Die Rezepte sind wie immer teilweise sehr einfach aber wirklich sehr raffiniert, vor all Leggi tutto

3.5 stars. I actually liked the layout. My copy has a blue ribbon, so I can easily mark the page if I want to mix & match. So far I've made three of the recipes & one of the sides - they were all keepers & I had lots of compliments. I have marked it down from 4 stars as I think cookbooks need to be val Leggi tutto
