Ooh, yes those 20-30 minute meals. They only work if you are un interuppted. Being hassled by small children means you need an hour, or the meal gets ruined because they hassle you at that one vital point and something gets overcooked or burnt.

Haha I don't think I've ever cooked anything that takes 20 minutes! Even boring old meat & three veg seems to take longer than that
I bought the Good Taste mag yesterday, on the cover it says "warm & cosy comfort food" and 4 family pasta bakes, soups and slow cooker recipes....then it's full of indian stuff, and recipes that look ok but end up complicated or have a million ingredients in them. I should just remember not to buy them no matter how good they look! Lol. I used to subscribe to Super Food Ideas but didn't renew it because in every issue there was only a few recipes I would actually cook.
Know what you mean about the cookbooks Astrid. I think the only really great cookbooks I have are 4 AWW ones (the Bake/Cook etc). I was so excited to get Jamie Oliver's Ministry of Food and then sadly disappointed when most of it I wouldn't cook or it just seemed a bit boring. I did make a cauliflower pasta bake out of it but added a few extra things to it because the recipe sounded a bit bland!
