Introduction
Adapted from Jamie Oliver's 15 minute meals book. I have adjusted pack sizes to those most easily available to me.Wondering why Spark Recipes has nowhere for me to put a lamb dish in main categories. It's not poultry, beef, pork or fish!
And beware, it always takes me longer than 15 minutes to make these meals, but it is still a very quick meal! Adapted from Jamie Oliver's 15 minute meals book. I have adjusted pack sizes to those most easily available to me.
