Jamie’s £1 Wonders (Channel 4 Monday 31 October 2022)
In this special one-off programme, Jamie Oliver provides us with delicious and wholesome recipes to help us stay within our spending limits in the kitchen as the nation deals with rising food and energy prices. Based on the cost of the ingredients used, according to prices in supermarkets at the time of filming in October 2022, Jamie offers a variety of tasty, family-friendly dishes that can each be made for less than £1 per portion.
A cheeky vegetarian curry that can be made from scratch in the microwave follows a deliciously juicy meatloaf that elevates one of the cheapest cuts of meat to the level of a Sunday roast. He then celebrates the most economical way to cook. He adds half a vegetable to his batch-cooked Bolognese to stretch our meat—and our money—further.
Jamie makes the most of the oven whenever it’s on by cooking two dishes at once, saving one for later in the week or to share with those you love. This clever cooking strategy helps you save time and money. He prepares a cleverly streamlined lasagne using frozen vegetables and pantry staples, as well as a super-simple Cajun chicken traybake that cooks the chicken, vegetables, and rice all in the same dish, saving you from having to boil a separate pan.
By cooking them simultaneously, you can consume one tonight and reheat the other in the microwave, saving you from daily use of your oven or stovetop. Finally, just because you’re on a tight budget doesn’t mean you can’t treat yourself to something. Even your grandmother would enjoy Jamie’s quick three-minute sponge pudding, which is a classic treat.
