Hi Jamie,

I have just bought your 15 minute meal book.  I have noticed that some of the recipes use single cream instead of double cream.  I have used this before in cooking and it splits so I'm worried that it will do so again.

Taking your gratin recipe as an example won't the cream split when it's in the oven?  How do I stop the cream from splitting in other recipes?

Thanks for the help.

Whenever using single cream to add to a hot mixture, you must slowly heat the cream beforehand in a seperate pan and add it only when it reaches the same temperature as the already hot mixture....

Hi gmont and welcome to the forums

I'm not Jamie but why not try segmented orange? Avocado wouldn't go astray, either.

Hope this is of some use.

Hi Jamie,
I tried making the Banana Pancake but I could not make the banana looks golden and crisp like you have done it. The banana came out from the pan looking limpy and mushy. Is there a tip /trick to do this correctly?

By the way, I am truly culinary challenged. Hence, I am currently attempting to cook 100 of your recipes in 6 months to confirm if anyone can really cook, if we try hard

I blog my cooking journal at www.myjamieoliverproject.blogspot.com

Hi Jamie,

First: LOVE your work , your recipes and your never ending motivation to make people love and eat better food.
Now my cooking problem: I can't get merinques right, I always overcook them. I want them to be sticky in the center, but how do I know when to get them out of the oven???
Hope you can help!
Keep up your great work!!! 
Kindest regards,
