Cooking Tips - Indian Cooking - Part 1

  1. If dosa sticks on the griddle / tawa - Cut an onion and wipe the griddle / tawa with it.
  2. Don't heat your dosa pan too much while making dosa, dosa will stick to it.
  3. While making chapathi , porotta or pathiri, wipe the griddle each time with a clean cloth when you cook a new one. This is to remove the dust and oil left by the previous one.
  4. Cooking time for eggs - for half boiled eggs - 3 or 3 1/2 minutes, to make it little harder - 4 to 5 minutes, for hard boiled eggs - 10 minutes.
