Recipes with Margarine
10 recipes
There are 10 recipes here that use Margarine, and every one of them is scored against what is actually in your fridge before it is shown. The quickest is Egg and Cheese Toastie at 8 minutes; the longest, Bread and Milk Pudding, takes 45. 6 of them finish in twenty minutes or less, which is usually what matters on a weeknight.
None of these need an oven, an air fryer, or a microwave — a stove and a pan is enough. 3 are vegetarian. 7 have no chili at all, so they work for children. 1 are properly spicy.
Margarine turns up most often alongside Chicken egg, Sausage, Onion and Cooked rice — if you have one or two of those as well, more of this list becomes cookable tonight rather than after a shopping trip. Add what you have to your fridge and the recipes reorder themselves around it, with anything missing collected into a shopping list.
Sausages in Spicy Tomato Sauce
Ten minutes from fridge to table. Score the sausages so the sauce gets inside instead of sitting on the skin.
⏱ 12 min🍽 3 servingsEasy
Sausage and Cheese Fried Rice
The version made for children: no chili at all, and the cheese goes in off the heat so it melts instead of clumping.
⏱ 15 min🍽 2 servingsEasy
Sausage and Green Beans
The fastest way to get children to eat green beans: cut them to sausage length so both land on the spoon together.

Nuggets in Sweet Soy Glaze
Three ingredients, eight minutes, and it tastes far more like home cooking than plain nuggets.
⏱ 10 min🍽 2 servingsEasy
Grilled Mackerel in Sweet Soy
Cooked in a pan, not over coals. The soy glaze goes on in the last five minutes so it never burns.
⏱ 30 min🍽 3 servingsEasy
Steamed Banana Cake
No oven, and moister for it. Wrap the steamer lid in a cloth so condensation never drips onto the batter.
⏱ 45 min🍽 6 servingsMedium
Egg and Cheese Toastie
Six minutes. The egg cooks in a hole cut in the bread, so both finish at the same moment.
⏱ 8 min🍽 1 servingsEasy
Bread and Milk Pudding
The best way to finish bread going stale. Fresh bread actually makes a soggier pudding.
⏱ 45 min🍽 5 servingsEasy
Corned Beef Fried Rice
Let the corned beef stick and crust before you stir it. That is the best part, and the part most often skipped.
⏱ 15 min🍽 2 servingsEasy
Corn and Carrot Soup
Naturally sweet with no added sugar. The corn and carrot simmer long enough for the sweetness to move into the broth.
