Jamie's Fifteen Minute Meals

TODAY, 7.30PM, TEN

Jamie Oliver's fast-talking hosting style makes this the perfect program for the food-loving British chef.

While the jury is still out on whether it's actually possible to create these dishes in 15 minutes, there are certainly some useful tips on offer.

In the first of two episodes airing tonight, Oliver dishes up Swedish meatballs with celeriac and spinach rice, and pesto pasta with garlic and rosemary chicken.

He really brings the food to life and when he plates up the final product, the food looks like it's alive, oozing across the plate seductively.

Love him or loathe him, Oliver can make even the most useless of cooks feel inspired to get in the kitchen.
