Using five ingredients, cleverly combined, you'll conjure up THE most exciting food . . . a crazy good pork burger topped with stacks of juicy sliced pear, crunchy salad leaves and oozy blue cheese, all squashed down under a soft burger bun. For dessert a classic really sumptuous shortbread, drizzled in dark chocolate and grated orange zest.

Jamie Oliver started cooking at his parents' pub, The Cricketers, in Clavering, Essex, at the age of eight. After leaving school he began a career as a chef that took him to the River Café, where he was famously spotted by a television production company.

His television and publishing career began in 1999 with The Naked Chef series. Since then he has set up Fifteen restaurant in London, changed school dinners in the UK and revolutionized home cooking. His charity, The Jamie Oliver Foundation, seeks to improve people's lives through food.

He writes for publications in the UK and around the world, including his own Jamie Magazine. Jamie lives in London and Essex with his wife Jools and their children.

From the Inside Flap

Using five ingredients, cleverly combined, you'll conjure up THE most exciting food . . . from this week's episode, tender lamb shoulder roasted with dried chickpeas, zesty preserved lemons, sweet ripened plum tomatoes, spiced with zingy Moroccan ras el hanout. Super green spaghetti - cavolo nero blitzed up with garlic and Parmesan, dotted with spoonfuls of ricotta. A one-pan fabulous fish - white basmati rice, topped with dollops of green olive tapenade, fresh fragrant basil leaves, cherry tomatoes and delicious flaky haddock. And for dessert, golden apple crumble cookies whipped up in an instant with dried apple, self-raising flour, butter, sugar and one egg . . . Superb.

It's all about making the journey to good food, super-simple. Every recipe uses just five key ingredients, ensuring you can get a plate of food together fast, whether it's finished and on the table super-quickly, or after minimal hands-on prep, you've let the oven do the hard work for you. We're talking quality over quantity, a little diligence on the cooking front, and in return massive flavour.

Each recipe has been tried and tested (and tested again!) to ensure the book is packed with no-fuss, budget-friendly dishes that you can rustle up, any day of the week.

With over 130 recipes, and chapters on Chicken, Beef, Pork, Lamb, Fish, Eggs, Veg, Salads, Pasta, Rice and Noodles and Sweet Things, there's plenty of quick and easy recipe inspiration to choose from. --This text refers to an alternate kindle_edition edition.

Game Changer!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 October 2017

Verified Purchase

This book had literally changed my life. After living on ready made meals most of my life the idea of eating better appealed to me. Then Jamie came along with the fantastic idea of putting this collection of recipes together all with just 5 ingredients. Game changer for me cooking fresh every single day. No ready meals, no takeaways. Losing weight, feeling better and enjoying cooking. My son has loved everything I have cooked so far. Brilliant idea! Brilliant book!

Quick, easy and slightly lacking substance

I'm torn by this book.

I really like Jamie Oliver and a lot of his books and series and his social media content in general is great and a lot of the recipes in this book are good.

The premise of this book is good but I feel it is also what let's it down the whole 5 ingredient thing holds it back. Some of the recipes just seem like the are missing something and others seem like a bit of filler for the book.

Overall some good recipes and some not so great.

Great cookbook - clear - Concise and dead easy to follow with good photographs. (Recipe list in review)

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 August 2017

Verified Purchase

As a mad keen home cook I have loads of cook books from all the well and not so well known chefs. I have quite a few of Jamie's and was eager to get my hands on this one!

It's a typical Jamie Oliver Cookbook - nicely put together - very easy to understand - dead easy to follow the well written recipes and he provides us with a nice colour photograph of how the finished dish should look. Not that it always does in my case!

Each left hand page shows you the 5 ingredients down the left side and has the nutritional info along the bottom. The right hand page is a full colour photograph of the finished dish. Really plain and easy to follow.

I have already made the Asian Fried eggs which were delicious and I'm making the Nutty Kale Salad for my dinner in work tonight.

I really like this one from Jamie. It's clear, concise and very easy to follow. As somebody who grows theIr own veg I found there's loads of good veggie options in here too. Loving the egg dishes in here as well. I think I'll be buying a few for christmas for foodie freinds.

Recommended.

So easy to follow. Perfect for midweek meals. So quick and easy. A picture with every recipe which I really love in any cook book. Nothing too fancy the store cupboard ingredients are really that mostly just oil and red wine vinegar. As a family of 4 with 2 young children 6 and 8 we eat from this book most days. By far the best Jamie Oliver book.

If you buy one cookbook this year, make it this one. Such fantastic variety of recipes broken into sections like pasta, fish, chicken etc No “weird” ingredients, so easy to prepare and yet so tasty. We have a very busy week with school, clubs and work but since having got this book we have had such tasty meals without any stress whatsoever to cook. It has become a family favourite to refer to. Get it! You will not regret it at all.

Brilliant

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 January 2019

Verified Purchase

This book has taught me how to cook. With only five ingredients you can't go too far wrong and it allows you to expand or swap out with minimal disruption to what you are making. A lot of recipes always list a truck load of ingredients and I always thought to myself: 'whats this spice for? What does this herb add that the other one doesn't?'. This book just strips it down to the basics and you can build from there.

Each recipe has pictures of every ingredient, the steps it takes to cook said ingredients and a photo of the end result which is all you need. As with all Jamie books I feel at times the language can be too flippant and generic when something needs to be cooked specifically. As someone that wants to get it right I feel this can be a push into the unknown with no help but most times it works out.

This is definitely a book for those learning to cook or wanting to experiment with minimalist meals - would recommend to anyone.

Disappointing

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 February 2018

Verified Purchase

Honestly, he's tied himself in a bit of a knot here by trying to limit himself to so few ingredients. The recipes end up being only a small part of a larger meal, and use ingredients like "2 teaspoons of pesto", whereas normally his recipes talk you through making some real pesto from scratch - and at the right quantity. It all results in a lot of waste and having to figure out what will go with what. Both of the Superfood books are vastly superior in my opinion.
