They can't wrap their minds around the concept of beans in a tomato sauce beautifully draped over some buttery toast.

It takes Jamie Oliver 30 minutes to cook his dinner, and he's a professional kitchen wizard.

But hey, if you want to be a little fancy you can cook the beans in a pan.

Fully covered, half on/half off, on the side etc.

And if you're feeling extra cheeky you can add a little cheese.
