All of these recipes are ones that I’ve simplified for people who don’t have the time or the energy to spend hours cooking. They take some short cuts with ingredients and especially prep times, but they will produce a nutritious meal. With practice I’m sure you can learn to prepare any of them within the hour, or even less time. The original recipes are linked, in case you want to try those.
Keep in mind that dishes like Pasta Bolognese and Fried Rice (Nasi Goreng) are peasant dishes developed to use up as many leftovers as possible. The Washington Post recently published a recipe for fried rice with canned meat (spam) and pineapple. This is a type of food that people ate when World War II caused food shortages. So never feel shy about swapping one vegetable for another if that’s what suits you. After all, he worst that can happen is that it doesn’t taste quite as well as you’d hoped for.
