Energy saving tips

23

– Use a lid whenever possible to mini‐

mize heat loss.

– For small quantities, select a small

pan. A small pan on a small burner

uses less energy than a large, only

partially filled pan on a large burner.

– Cook with as little water as possible.
– Once food has come to the boil or

the pan is hot for frying, reduce the

heat to a lower power setting.
