For people who are actually interested in the subject I warmly recommend
_Cooking in Ten Minutes_ by Edouard de Pomiane. I have posted some
recipes from the book over the years.

Not really more so than with any other kind of cooking. What one has to
realise, though, is that it could be 10 minutes for one person and 20
minutes for another. If a recipe calls for two onions, finely chopped,
then how long it really takes very much depends on your knife skills.

i must be a slowpoke, because there are very few things that would take me
ten minutes from start to finish. even with eggs or stuff to microwave, i
like to take food out of the refrigerator to come up to room temp a little.
