Helpful hints

1

Keep flames under the base of
pans. If the flames lick round the
sides of the pans you are wasting
gas.

2

Only heat the amount of liquid you
need. Do not overfill pans.

3

Cover pans with a lid whenever
possible. The food will heat up
more quickly and there will be less
steam in the kitchen.

4

Try cooking more than one
vegetable in the same pan, for
example potatoes and carrots.

5

Cut vegetables into smaller
pieces. This way they will cook
more quickly.

6

A pressure cooker will save time
and energy.
