Are you new to kitchen??? - Part II

I will share with you my experience and which i learnt in my kitchen (i.e. en-anubhavam). In starting i used to get scars while cooking now learn't by experience. If planned and organised cooking can be finished very quickly.

Be relaxed while cooking. If anything goes wrong don't get tensed it will make the situation worse. Find out what alternative can be done. I share with you that how organised you can do the cooking.

First keep the cooking place neat and clean. Don't make the kitchen messed up because that is the most important place i.e. heart of families health.

Be happy while entering the kitchen. Love the cooking process and do with passion as you study, do your work, drive, play or watch movie etc. Because it surely reflects in your cooking dish.

Keep the most essential things for cooking in accessible distance.Before start cooking, plan what are the menu items you are going to cook.Check whether all the required ingredients are available in the kitchen before you start cooking.

Try to use minimum number of utensils so that your vessel cleaning process will come down. Reuse the kadai/cooking vessel while cooking. For e.g. If you want to prepare onion chutney. First fry the garnishing items (mustard, urad dhal,etc) transfer to serving bowl and then fry the onion for chutney. Wash it and fry the dry curry in same kadai. 

Chop all the required vegetables for cooking and keep before you start the cooking process (switch on the gas). While cooking vegetables for dry curry boil vegetables only with required amount of water and for correct time to retain the nutrient value and color of the vegetable.Always cook in low heat or medium heat so you don't burn down the vegetable, energy is saved and cleaning of vessel will be easy.

Use less amount of salt. If salt is less it can be added on later stage also but, too much of salt will spoil the whole dish.

Keep small tsp in oil bottle/box/vessel so that you use less oil for garnishing the curries and gravies.

Will share more.......
