Nasi Goreng plus a cheeky cheat ingredient that makes life easier

I do love a cheat ingredient that makes life a little easier.

My favourite is frozen chopped garlic, which is a fab time saver (and I no longer find garlic bulbs sprouting green shoots at the back of my condiment drawer).

Now Ive just discovered a new favourite. One recipe from Quick After-Workuses ready-made crispy fried onions. Who knew?

Sold in tubs, ready-made crispy fried onions give a handy savoury crunch to all sorts of dishes.

Yes, fried onions are not difficult to cook but this handy little tub means you dont have to dirty an extra pan and suffer watering eyes chopping onions.

Nasi Goreng

Nasi Goreng is also new to me but WOW. Its so delicious (yet so simple). Its an Indonesian fried-rice dish, usually topped with a fried egg.

Rick Stein describes it as one of the worlds great comfort foods and hes right, it really is.

Give it a try and see if you agree.

This Nasi Goreng recipe is from our Quick After-Work cookbook

The book has sold more on our website than any other so it must be good!
