tips for quick and easy meals
Cooking a delicious meal doesn’t need to be difficult or take a long time. Here are some tips that work for us when time is short or we don’t want to put in more effort that we need to!
- Prepare your ingredients in advance, including cutting any vegetables. These meals can come together in a hurry, so having your ingredients ready will make the whole experience much easier.
- Look for prepared ingredients. We love frozen ginger pieces and garlic paste. They taste great and make cooking easy! Having a few key ingredients in your freezer or cupboard and ready to go will mean less steps to a great meal.
- Use the tools you have around. Why cut vegetables by hand when you can do it much quicker in a food processor or with a mandoline? As a bonus you get consistent results, which can be difficult with a knife.
- Try a pressure cooker or Instant Pot. They do a great job and can give you amazing results with little time or effort! When in a hurry, we’ve often started meat in an Instant Pot and finished it in the oven for crispy skin.
- Make use of ingredients that already have flavour built in, such as pesto, sausages or marinated red peppers. Each of these will bring so much flavour with them that you will need to do less to get delicious results.
