Five-ingredient recipes will get you in and out of the kitchen in no time. Also, if they are your favourite ingredients you’ll most likely have some of them in your kitchen. Water, oil for frying, and other essential spices in anyone’s cupboard do not count (salt, pepper, paprika, oregano, basil,  rosemary, chili, curry, bay leaves, thyme, cinnamon , vanilla extract, sugar)!
