Can you cook or prepare a meal in less than 10 minutes?

If my microwave was working I could. But unfortunately it's on the blink. I really need at least 30 minutes to get a good full hot meal prepared. Water for pasta takes 5 minutes to boil. Rice take 20 minutes. I guess if I had tortilla dough ready and used canned foods I could do it. My problem is I do everything from scratch. Tortilla dough, pasta dough etc needs to sit awhile before rolling and cooking. Veggies need to be washed cut and then cooked. It all takes time.

It depends on what I am cooking and with what raw materials I am dealing with. I love to cook and it will be the best when I spend quiet sometime doing it.

Depends on what the ingredients are and what is the process of cooking, i am very fast at cooking, Indian food includes very lengthy procedure and very complicated ways of preparation, like we still dont use readymade pastes for ginger or garlic etc but still i cook for the whole family of 6 within 45 mins or so, it includes at least 3 recipes,one vegetables and chapati and rice also.So i tihnk if i see ur 10 min programme i will definitely be able to cook accordingly..

Mostof my meals take between 30 minutes to an hour to prepare. But if I know I'm going to be pressed for time I prepare a lot of things in advance. If I have done some pre-planning I can throw a 10 minute meal together. Have a great day!

My recipes would make me spend more than an hour spent in the kitchen. But I think a 10 minutes meal is possible. Maybe a simple salad with its dressing can be done in 10 minutes. But I like to spend more time in the kitchen. We cannot rush perfection.

it depends on what you're planning to cook. Don't expect to finish baking a cheese cake in 10 minutes! If you're looking for simpler stuff like scrambled egg, then i think it's not a problem. Most of the time, it would require 20 min or more for me to cook something nice and more complicated.

I can cook a nice tuna omelet in 10 minutes (including chopping and all!) but for more complicated meals it takes me about 20 minutes to an hour. When i have free time i chop onions and put them in a container in the refrigerator. I also have crushed garlic in a bottle. These cut down on my prep time :)

It really depends on what you're cooking.If for some instant meal,like noodles,dumpling,or sth like that,I can do it within 1o minutes coz it's a piece of cake.~if you're mentioning the dinner or the meal for family day,I would be very appreciate if someone who can do within 10 minutes tell me the method of doing the super meal`~`For me,I like cooking and will take all the cooking response in my family.lol``I need at least 1 hour to prepare the family day dinner and at least 30 mins to cook for daily dinner~Have a nice day`

Hi dorisday1971, Wao, cook or prepare a meal in 10 minutes seems really hard for me... Unless I will cook the pasta. It is really easy for me...Boild a pot of water, put pasta into it, and cook for about 7 minutes. At the mean while prepare the pasta sauce. And the salad is super easy for me as well...hehe, just heat the chick chunk, put the vegetables into a bowl, and add the heated chicken, and add sauce into it.... I usually eat above two stuff for my lunch.
