My cooking focuses on minimizing the effort/quality ratio.
Good food is great, but in today’s busy world it isn’t reasonable to spend two hours cooking every meal, especially if one lives alone or in a household where everyone works. Therefore most of my recipes are quick, designed to take a half hour or less, so you can do them in that narrow window between getting home from work and becoming hungry enough to get cranky. The ideal pasta sauce, in my opinion, should be able to be prepared in less time than the pasta itself takes to cook.
Some of my recipes are more complicated, but my rule is that if a dish is twice as much work to prepare it had better be twice as good.
Most of my dishes are Italian, not authentic Italian but my own versions altered to be easy and practical, even if all you have is an American grocery store. Some of my dishes use other cuisines, but all follow the same principle of minimizing effort while still producing something exciting.
