For quick meals and cooking, it's helpful to keep a selection of versatile ingredients on hand. Red pepper paste adds depth and heat to dishes like stir-fries and marinades, while soy sauce and fish sauce provide savoury umami flavours in Asian-inspired recipes. Lemon juice is great for brightening up salads, seafood dishes, and sauces, adding a tangy freshness. Mixed herbs offer a convenient way to season dishes without chopping fresh herbs, perfect for adding flavor to soups, stews, roasted vegetables, and pasta sauces. Additionally, having a variety of seasonings such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, and chilli flakes ensures you can adjust the taste of your dishes to suit your preferences. These ingredients are store-cupboard staples that can help you whip up quick and flavourful meals with minimal effort.
For quick meal prep, start by planning your week's meals with simple recipes that share ingredients to reduce waste and shopping time. Prep ingredients in batches by washing and chopping vegetables, cooking grains or proteins, and portioning snacks or smoothie ingredients. Utilise convenience items like pre-cut veggies and canned beans to save time. Invest in time-saving tools such as a food processor or rice cooker. Cook extra portions of meals to freeze for future use, keeping your kitchen organised and stocked with essentials to streamline cooking. Clean as you go to minimise post-cooking cleanup. These strategies will make meal prep faster and more efficient, giving you more time to enjoy your meals and less time in the kitchen.
For 20-minute meals, several kitchen utensils and appliances can help expedite and speed up the cooking process. An Instant Pot is excellent for quickly cooking grains, beans, and proteins like chicken or beef. Its pressure-cooking function significantly reduces cooking times, allowing you to prepare dishes such as soups, stews, and even risotto in a fraction of the time. A slow cooker can also be handy for 20-minute meals if you've done some prep in advance. Simply toss ingredients into the slow cooker in the morning, and by evening, you'll have a flavourful meal ready to enjoy. An air fryer is perfect for quickly cooking proteins and vegetables with little to no oil, providing a healthier alternative to frying. Its rapid cooking capabilities make it ideal for preparing crispy chicken, roasted vegetables, or even fries in a short amount of time. Additionally, using one-pot recipes minimises cleanup and simplifies the cooking process. With just a single pot or pan, you can create delicious meals like pasta dishes, stir-fries, and skillet meals in under 20 minutes, making them perfect for busy weeknights. These kitchen appliances and utensils can help you whip up tasty and nutritious meals in no time, perfect for when you're short on time but still want a satisfying dinner.
To make a quick meal more substantial and satisfying, incorporate grains like pasta or rice, which add bulk and carbohydrates for energy. Opt for whole grain varieties to increase fibre and nutrients. Additionally, include healthy fats such as avocado slices, nuts, or seeds to boost satiety and add richness to the dish. For example, toss cooked pasta with olive oil, garlic, cherry tomatoes, and spinach, then top with sliced avocado for a quick and filling meal. Similarly, stir-fry rice with mixed vegetables, tofu or chicken, and a drizzle of sesame oil for added flavour and healthy fats.
