Tips

I have three small tips for today.

1. Boiling potato in microwave: Take a potato wash it and make 5-6 cuts in it by poking a knife into it. Wrap the potato in a plastic food wrap or you can use a plastic bag also(This helps to keep the potato moist and not dry off). Keep the potato in microwave for 2 min(this time may vary depending on the power of microwave and size of the potato). Let it cool and peel.

2. Sometimes when you eat pineapple it irritates your mouth and throat. To avoid this after peeling the pineapple I rub some salt on it and wash it in running water. Doing this also makes it more tasty by giving it a slight salty flavour.

3. Whenever you are heating ghee for tadka, heat it on a high flame till it smokes and then reduce the flame to low for sometime and then add masalas to it. This process increases the flavour of ghee.
