For example, Surat al-Ikhlas, al-Kawthar, or al-'Asr are sufficient in any unit of any prayer after the Fatiha. Three verses are the wajib amount, and any three verses can do this - even short ones like the first three of Surat al-Rahman. What is the minimum number of ayat are you allowed to recite in Salah after Al-Fatihah? As you guys already know, there are chapters in the Quran that are so long, that I don't think any of us could recite it all in one standing. Furthermore, there are single verses in the Quran that are so long, it could be as if they're their own Surahs.
As you have mentioned, the minimum requirement for the necessary recitation in Salaah is three verses or one verse equivalent to three. However, the minimum requirement for the amount of letters necessary is, according to one opinion, eighteen.

Then there are things that are generally permissible to be done in the salah. RMWO.
