In season 1 episode 7 of Jamie's 15 Minute Meals, Jamie Oliver takes on the challenge of creating two delicious and speedy Asian-inspired dishes: Chicken Dim Sum and Crab Briks.
For the Chicken Dim Sum, Jamie first prepares the filling by combining chicken thighs, ginger, garlic, and coriander in a food processor. He then shows viewers how to make the perfect steaming set-up by placing a heatproof bowl on a pot of boiling water, and adds the dim sum to the bowl to steam for 8-10 minutes. While the chicken is steaming, Jamie quickly makes a dipping sauce by combining soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. The result is a mouthwatering plate of fragrant Chicken Dim Sum that can be enjoyed as an appetizer or a main dish.
Next up is Crab Briks, a crispy and flavorful Tunisian dish that's been given a Jamie Oliver twist. Jamie starts by preparing the filling, which consists of crabmeat, spring onions, ginger, and coriander. He then shows viewers how to assemble the briks by placing a spoonful of the filling on a sheet of filo pastry, folding it into a triangle shape, and then frying the briks for a few minutes until they are golden and crispy.
To accompany the Crab Briks, Jamie prepares a refreshing dipping sauce made with Greek yogurt, mint, and lemon juice. He also whips up a quick side salad with rocket, tomatoes, and red onion, which adds a pop of color and freshness to the dish.
Throughout the episode, Jamie shares his top tips for speeding up cooking time, including preparing ingredients ahead of time and using store-bought shortcuts like pre-cooked rice and pre-made filo pastry.
As always, the episode ends with Jamie sitting down to enjoy his creations with a group of friends, who rave about the flavors and speed of the dishes. Overall, this episode of Jamie's 15 Minute Meals is a must-watch for anyone who loves Asian-inspired flavors and wants to whip up a delicious and speedy meal in no time.
