Anyone with a kitchen can make delicious and healthy meals in just a quarter of an hour. Jamie’s 15 Minute Meals shows you how. Chef Jamie Oliver shares his passion for food by supplying tips and tricks that make food magic possible.

任何有厨房的都能在15分钟内做出美味又健康的菜色。《奥利佛十五分钟上菜》秀给你看。藉由提供让美食魔法成真的诀窍，主厨杰米．奥利佛向大家分享他对食物的热忱。

On one mouthwatering episode, Jamie reinvents the classic chili con carne. This dish is traditionally a stew of meat, beans, and vegetables that can take hours to cook. However, with a little creativity and a handful of “secret weapons,” the English chef makes it work.

在令人垂泛三尺的一集节目中，杰米重新创造出经典的墨西哥肉酱，这道菜肴传统上须花费数小时才能将炖肉、豆子以及蔬菜烹调完成，但这位英国主厨运用一点创意和一手秘密武器达成任务。

To get all the flavors together in such a short time, Jamie employs an old battle strategy: divide and conquer. He breaks up the cooking into three parts: meat, sauce, and spices. In a fabulous feat of multi-tasking, he works like a conductor standing before an orchestra. The sounds of sizzling meat, the brightly colored vegetables, and Jamie’s commentary nearly let you smell and taste the food. Alas, as great as this show is to watch, you have to cook along with Jamie to be fully satisfied.

为了要在如此短时间内五味俱全，杰米使用一种古老的作战策略：「各个击破」。他将烹饪分为三部分：肉、酱以及香料。在多任务作业的高超技艺下，他就像一位站在管弦乐队前的指挥般地挥洒。火烫的肉嘶嘶作响、色彩鲜艳的蔬菜以及杰米的实况评论让你彷佛可以闻香及品尝到这道美食。唉，虽然本节目如此精采，但你必须和杰米一起做菜才能获得充分的满足。

Jamie’s chili con carne meatballs dish starts with bulgur wheat. This grain looks like rice, and is just as easy to cook. Jamie improves the wheat with salted lemons, one of his secret weapons. For a little extra taste, he puts a whole cinnamon stick into the pot. As the bulgur wheat steams, Jamie moves on to prepare the meat.

杰米的墨西哥辣肉丸料理从小麦开始，这种谷物外观似米，也和米一样易煮。杰米以秘密武器之一的沾盐柠檬令小麦更好吃，并将整根肉桂棒放入锅中来增添一些风味。在小麦蒸热时,杰米开始准备肉。

To get his beef cooked in a flash, he packs some ground beef with spices, and rolls it into balls. For these, Jamie uses another secret weapon called garam masala, a blend of Indian spices. Just like the lemons, these spices instantly insert a lot of flavor. Jamie drops the meatballs into a hot pan and heads over to his food mixer.

To form the base of his sauce, Jamie uses a precooked tomato sauce, saving heaps of time. He mixes in more herbs and vegetables with a blender. Finally, after adding beans to the meatball pan, everything is ready to e put together. The result is a beautiful dinner made amazingly quickly.
