1
Today we're going to be making three different speedy meals that should take about 20 minutes or less to make.
2
If you're looking to make a quick lunch or dinner, hopefully we've got you covered in today's video.
3
Just want to give you the heads up that in order for these to be ready in about 20 minutes or less, what we want to do is chop and prepare certain ingredients while other things are cooking away on the stove, but I'm going to walk you through those steps.
4
So if you follow along, everything should go just great.
5
So let's dive right in.
6
For the first recipe we're making a delicious oyster mushroom curry salad sandwich.
7
So this is a recipe that you can find here in the Netherlands commonly called kipkere but usually it calls for chicken.
8
Obviously we're not going to use that so we're instead going to use oyster mushrooms but we'll come back to this in a minute.
9
First we're going to mince a clove of garlic and then we're going to mince half of a shallot but if you don't have a shallot feel free to use whatever small onion you've got on hand.
10
Then to a medium pan on medium-high heat, we're going to add a little bit of olive oil, along with the garlic and shallot, and we're going to cook this for about two to three minutes.
11
Then using our hands, we're going to peel about two cups or 150 grams of oyster mushrooms into the pan.
12
We're using oyster mushrooms here because they're really stringy.
13
Once they cook up, they actually give a really nice meaty texture to the dish.
14
So once all the mushrooms have been added into the pan, we're going to add a little sprinkle of salt, and then we can let this cook for about three minutes.
15
Then to the pan we're going to add half of a teaspoon each of ground cumin and ground coriander, a quarter teaspoon of ground ginger and a bit of freshly cracked black pepper.
16
And we're going to stir this in and let it cook for another three minutes or so.
17
By now the liquid from the mushrooms should have evaporated and the mushrooms are going to be lightly golden.
18
When it is we can remove it from the heat and transfer it to a bowl.
19
To the mushroom mixture that's in the bowl we're going to add in half of a cup of pineapple chunks that we just got from a jar,
20
along with two tablespoons of vegan mayo, two tablespoons of an unsweetened plant-based yogurt, one teaspoon of curry powder, and one teaspoon of Dijon mustard.
21
Then we're going to give it all a stir until everything is well combined.
22
And all that's left at this point is just to assemble the sandwich so to a slice of toasted bread i'm going to add some lettuce and some
23
tomato slices and then we can add on top of that the mushroom curry mixture and i'm going to garnish it as well with some sliced
24
green onions and that's pretty much it it might look like a strange combination of flavors the meaty mushrooms and then the tropical fresh taste of pineapple together with spices like cumin and curry but everything works so incredibly well together.
25
It's also a really easy recipe if you ever wanted to batch make it and then store it in the fridge because then if you're in the need of a quick lunch all you've got to do is just add it to some toasted bread and lunch is ready.
26
For the next recipe we're going to be making these za'atar spiced veggie wraps with a mint and garlic yogurt sauce.
27
First up we're going to chop one medium zucchini into to little small one centimeter cubes and we're gonna do the exact same thing with one medium eggplant.
28
And then to a large pan on high heat, we're gonna add in about a tablespoon of olive oil and when it's hot, we can add in a teaspoon of whole cumin seeds.
29
We're gonna stir this and let it toast for about 30 seconds before we add in the zucchini and eggplant along with half of a teaspoon of salt.
30
Try to not skip adding the salt at this stage because it really helps to draw the water out of the veggies and that makes it cook faster.
31
So we're gonna let this cook for about three to four minutes stirring occasionally just to prevent it from burning.
32
And while this cooks, we're going to chop up one green bell pepper, also into small little one centimeter pieces.
33
And we're also going to drain and rinse a can of cooked brown lentils.
34
Now when you're ready, you can add the green bell pepper to the pan along with the brown lentils.
35
And I'm also going to add in one and a half tablespoons of za'atar spice mix.
36
Then we're going to stir this all together.
37
We can drop the heat to medium, and then we're going to cover it with a lid.
38
So Zatar, I'm surprised this is the first time I'm sharing this in a recipe video because I use this at home all the time.
39
It's a classic Middle Eastern spice mix.
40
You might be able to find it at your local grocery store, but in case they don't have it, you can always make it yourself at home and we have a recipe for this on the vlog.
41
So I'll leave a link for you in the description box below.
42
So while the veggies are cooking away, we're going to whip together a super speedy mint and garlic yogurt sauce.
43
So to a medium bowl, we're going to add in one cup of an unsweetened plant-based yogurt along with two cloves of crushed garlic,
44
one tablespoon of fresh lemon juice, two tablespoons of thinly sliced fresh mint leaves along with a quarter teaspoon of salt.
45
And we can stir it all up and then we're gonna set it aside for now.
46
For this recipe I'm using some pita bread which I'm actually gonna warm up on the stove.
47
First I I usually like to brush a little bit of water on both sides of the pita and then add it to a skillet that's been preheated on medium-high.
48
And then I let it just sit and toast for a few seconds before I give it a flip and then let it toast on the other side.
49
Now, when ready, we can assemble our pitas.
50
First, we can start by lathering on a generous few spoonfuls of the mint garlic yogurt sauce.
51
Follow that with some lettuce if you've got it.
52
And then we can add on top the sauteed and spiced veggie mixture.
53
Follow that with some diced tomatoes, but if you've got pomegranate seeds at home, this works incredibly well with the dish So feel free to add that in there.
54
And then finally we can drizzle over top a generous amount of tahini If you've got some fresh mint leaves, garnish it with that too.
55
And there you have it.
56
It's a warm saucy flavor-packed wrap that's super wholesome.
57
I feel like it's just really fresh and filling and it works perfectly for either lunch or dinner.
58
Now for the final recipe we're going to be making a speedy one pot tomato and chickpea stew.
59
We're gonna begin by finely chopping one large onion.
60
Mine were actually super small so I'm gonna be using two onions here and then we're going to finely chop one medium carrot as well as one roasted bell pepper that I just get from a jar but you could also use a raw bell pepper here instead.
61
Then to a large pan on high heat we're gonna add in some vegetable oil along with the onion, carrot and bell pepper and half a teaspoon of salt.
62
We're then gonna give this all a stir and then let it sit and cook for about five minutes.
63
So while that's cooking away, we can then thinly slice about four cloves of garlic and I'm gonna mince up one chili pepper as well.
64
And then we can add this to the pan too, letting it cook for another couple minutes or so before we add in two teaspoons each of ground cumin and smoked paprika powder, but you could also use regular paprika powder, plus a teaspoon of ground coriander.
65
We're then going to stir the spices in and we're going to let it sit and cook and toast for about a minute before we add in two 400 gram tins of diced tomatoes and about two cups worth of cooked chickpeas,
66
half of a cup of olives here I'm using green olives but but Kalmato works great here too.
67
Plus we're going to add in two tablespoons of tahini and two teaspoons of sodium reduced soy sauce.
68
Then give this all a stir, mixing it until it's nice and creamy.
69
Then we're going to drop the heat to medium, partially cover it with a lid, and then let this cook for about five minutes so that the flavors all meld and come together.
70
While that's cooking away, we can finely chop a couple handfuls of spinach.
71
And when ready, we can add this to the pan along with some freshly cracked black pepper.
72
and then once the spinach is stirred in it's only going to take a minute or so for it to soften and when it has we can remove the pan from the heat.
73
All that's left at this point is to garnish the dish and to serve it up generously into some bowls.
74
I personally highly recommend topping it with some fresh basil leaves if you've got it and some freshly squeezed lemon on top really brings
75
all the flavors of this dish together but to keep this recipe quick and simple I'm actually just gonna serve it alongside some toasted bread
76
just to scoop up that chunky stew with but you could also serve it alongside some cooked rice if you'd like hopefully you've got some ideas of new different quick speedy
77

Perché esercitarsi a parlare con questo video?

Guardare e seguire video come questo sui pasti vegani da preparare rapidamente offre una grande opportunità per migliorare la pronuncia inglese e sviluppare le proprie abilità di conversazione. Il contesto culinario è particolarmente utile, poiché non solo si imparano nuove ricette, ma si acquisiscono anche vocaboli e frasi utili per comunicare nelle situazioni quotidiane. Esercitarsi a ripetere frasi chiave dopo il narratore, utilizzando shadowspeak, aiuta a perfezionare la pronuncia e a rendere il discorso più fluido e naturale.

Grammatica e Espressioni nel Contesto

Nel video, sono stati utilizzati alcuni costrutti grammaticali e frasi interessanti che possono arricchire il tuo vocabolario e la tua fluidità. Ecco alcune espressioni chiave:

  • "We're going to make..." - Questa struttura è comune per esprimere futuri piani e azioni, ed è utile per descrivere attività.
  • "Feel free to..." - Un modo cortese per invitare gli ascoltatori a vivere l'esperienza senza restrizioni.
  • "Once they cook up..." - Un'ottima espressione per spiegare processi e cambiamenti, utile per descrivere ricette.
  • "All that's left..." - Questa frase introduce la conclusione di un processo, efficace per sintetizzare le istruzioni.

Queste strutture non solo migliorano la comprensione, ma forniscono anche modelli per le conversazioni quotidiane.

Trappole di Pronuncia Comuni

Quando si seguono video in inglese, ci sono alcune parole e accenti che possono risultare difficili. Ecco alcuni punti su cui prestare attenzione:

  • "Oyster mushrooms" - La pronuncia di "oyster" può risultare complicata, prestare attenzione alla corretta articolazione.
  • "Curry powder" - Assicurati di enfatizzare la corretta intonazione nelle parole composte.
  • "Za'atar" - La pronuncia di questa spezia mediorientale richiede attenzione, per evitare errori e migliorare la tua pronuncia inglese.

Utilizzando tecniche come il shadow speech, puoi lavorare su queste difficoltà e migliorare l'accento in modo efficace. Ricorda, la pratica rende perfetti e esercitarsi con materiali autentici è fondamentale per progredire.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
