Frequently asked questions

How is the time worked out?

Prep time plus cooking or baking time. A recipe only appears here if both together take 30 minutes or less.

How can I cook faster on weeknights?

Prep veg and grains ahead, use one pan instead of several pots and get all your ingredients out before you start. To save even more time, cook ahead with meal prep recipes.

Are quick recipes less healthy?

No. Short cooking times help keep heat-sensitive vitamins in the food. What matters is the ingredients: veg, pulses, eggs, fish or tofu cook quickly and bring lots of nutrients.
