20 Minute Meals with Jaimie Oliver for the iPhone. If you have been looking for an app that gives you great cooking tips, recipes and basically works as your assistant in the kitchen, then 20 Minute Meals is a great app for you. The app includes 60 new recipes from Jamie Oliver and each is sectionalized in easy to follow steps. Each recipe includes helpful photos so that you know you are keeping in line with the recipe every step of the way. There are also 20 or so videos of the chef providing you with tips and tricks for the kitchen which include a demonstration on how to sharpen your knives and dice an onion.
With sixty recipes, this app is much less expensive than a cookbook and a lot easier to use because the developers organized the information for someone that is in the kitchen. 20 minute meals will also save you a lot of money in the long run by making staying in and cooking less of a chore and more of a thrill.
One of the added features that comes in handy is the shopping list. Instead of having to switch out to another shopping list app, the developers included an easy to use list that lets you add ingredients as you run out in the kitchen. It also lets you share your shopping list, so if your spouse is at the store, you can update their list on the fly.
