The Quick Six Fix Cookbook Review

The Quick Six Fix by LA Chef, Stuart O’Keefe (Cookbook Review)

May 12, 2016 By Joi Sigers

The Quick Six Fix Cookbook

The Quick Six Fix by Stuart O’Keefe

Another day, another cookbook review…. can you tell I’m more than just a little obsessed with cookbooks?

I just can’t help myself – not that I’ve really tried.

One of the newest cookbooks in my collection is Stuart O’Keefe’s The Quick Six Fix and I’m especially excited about it.  This cookbook is all about saving time and simplifying with 100 deliciously creative, quick-and-easy recipes —using 6 ingredients, 6 minutes of prep, and 6 minutes of clean up.  Make no mistake about it, this is a cookbook from celebrity chef Stuart O’Keeffe that you’ll want to order right away.

Personally I’m crazy about cookbooks like this because I know that each recipe is going to call for a small number of ingredients. Seriously, who wants to wander all over the kitchen rounding up dozens of ingredients – what’s worse, of course, is having to round them up in the grocery store. The correlation between the number of items in the cart and the number of dollar bills on the receipt is the stuff of nightmares.

On top of keeping things simple with ingredients, Chef O’Keefe keeps things simple with the prep and… are you sitting down…. clean up. That’s right, in the kitchen/out of the kitchen just got simpler – just in time for summer because who wants to spend all summer in front of a hot stove?!

The Quick Six Fix Cookbook

The Quick Six Fix: Garlic Chicken Recipe

Cookbook Description from Amazon:

Save time and simplify with 100 fabulous quick-and-easy recipes—using 6 ingredients, 6 minutes of prep, and 6 minutes of clean up—from celebrity chef Stuart O’Keeffe.

Preparing a meal doesn’t need to be difficult or require a lot of time, celebrity chef Stuart O’Keeffe insists. If you work efficiently while keeping your space clean and cook with minimal yet flavorful ingredients, you can get a great meal from stove to table fast. In The Quick Six Fix, he offers dozens of delicious recipes for breakfast, salads, soups, pasta, fish, chicken, pork, beef, sides, and desserts that will get you in and out of the kitchen in thirty minutes or less. Each requires no more than 6 key ingredients, 6 minutes of prep work, and 6 minutes of clean up.

Chef Stuart begins with the pantry essentials and tools you’ll need to whip up a diverse range of amazing dishes at a moment’s notice, such as his tasty culinary school favorites, Moules Frites and Pistachio Basil Buttered Crispy Salmon. Indulge in delights that pay homage to his native Ireland, including Bangers with a Melted Leek Mash and Cranberry Compote, Sweet Berries “Yorkshire Pudding,” and an Easter dinner favorite, Mustard Crusted Pork with Apple Cabbage Slaw. And savor delights like Mexican Street Corn and the “LA” Cheeseburger influenced by his adopted California home.

Stuart O’Keeffe believes in simplicity: Fewer ingredients afford higher quality. With The Quick Six Fix,he teaches you how to take smart shortcuts, like pairing key store-bought items with homemade ingredients, to cut kitchen time and save you money. Illustrated with more than 75 full color photos,The Quick Six Fix is the secret to creating easy-to-make, great-tasting dishes that are sure to wow.
