This is a Jamie Oliver recipe which I have made low Fodmap. This was from his book, Jamie’s 30-Minute Meals, so I tried to make it in 30 minutes. I got out all the ingredients and equipment, put on the oven and then started timing the making, and still it took 50 minutes. I had no issues with the process and worked as quickly as possible but I simply couldn’t get it down to 30 minutes. I would love to hear from someone who has managed it.

I loved how they stayed together and didn’t crumble apart and so looked the part as well as tasting good. The salsa added a special lift to them.
