Fajitas -meat fried in airfryer with onions and peppers

You can pick up a little induction hob for about £40 from Amazon and they work really well.

There's a whole sub genre or even sub culture of cooking called, "Dump dinners." The idea is basically one pot/pan meals with no prior frying off of the soffrito or browning of the meat.

Real hardcore Dumpers even try to do away with any kind of stirring or mixing of the ingredients until serving. Unsurprisingly, quite a few Dumpers are devotees of the slow cooker but they're pretty inventive sometimes.

I've heard of "Taming Twins" being quite a popular blog amongst Mumsnetters so here are her top suggestions:

Take them a meal:

You get the idea.

Then there's, "Dump Desserts"

You can make rice and pasta in the microwave. It won't be the best you've ever had in your life but it'll be edible.

And, of course, there's always cooking salmon in the dishwasher.

Google Bored of Lunch, or follow him on social media. He only cooks in air fryers or slow cookers.

I too was going to suggest a hotplate, I got a 2 ring one on Amazon for about £25 it lasted over 18 months. (It still works now but I finally got around to replacing the the cooker)

How about one of these if you can nip out to ikea?

TILLREDA portable induction hob, 1 zone white - IKEA Ireland https://share.google/6aYNxw5MOZTNn4l9y

I bought one of these! here in Ikea Punta Cana. My hob works fine, but sometimes if i need something on for a while, heating up the house is not worth it.. mine goes outside on the patio if i need a long simmer dish! it is awesome and really reasonable in price
