Meal 2: Pregnant Jools’s Pasta

Jamies’s 30 Minute Meals – week 2

This Meal I loved. Again this meal wouldn’t be one I personally would choose because it isn’t a stand out, there are others I would have chosen over it. However I really enjoyed it. We had to go visit my grandpa halfway through though, so this recipe was great, I could just get the mixtures ready and when we came home I just had to cook everything. The full recipe is :

  • Pregnant Jools’s pasta
  • Crunchy chickory and watercress salad
  • Little frangipane tarts

Pregnant Jools’s Pasta

The pasta sauce was very simple to make, you pretty much just put all your ingredients in the food processor and turn it on, adding your sausages, fennel seeds and oregano later.The pasta I loved, It was delicious. It was also great because I just had to blend all the in grediants together and then since I had to visit my pa when I came back I just had to cook the pasta, heat up the sauce, mix it together and then it was ready!

Crunchy Chickory and Watercress salad

I unfortunetely could not find any chickory and so I left it out. You can purchase chickory here in Australia however my mum says that in the UK chickory could be something we pronunce different here. However I am not a hundred percent sure what that vegetable is.The salad still turned out great! I loved the lemon and parmasan flavours with the watercress.

Little Frangipane Tarts

The frangipane tarts were delicious!I had tiny tart cases so I managed to make twelve, this was not a problem though it just meant great dessert the next night! The whole family enjoyed this dessert including my fussy little sister which we were all pleased about. They took a bit of time to put together but well worth it! I made the mixture then when I came home I just put them together. A tip with the tarts is to not put them in the oven until your nearly ready to eat them, otherwise they can be cold.

Timing

Unfortunetly I can not tell you the timing because I had to go visit my pa. However it took no longer then 45 minutes.

Out of ten I rated this dish an 9 out of 10
