Hi aachus,

I am a big fan of prepping and freezing. It really helps to have some prepped veggies in the fridge.

You can peel the onions,instead of cutting them.They stay fresh. You can cut veggies like okra,carrot,beans etc and then store in plastic boxes. They make an easy thoran.

I always halve my coconut and then store in the fridge.Use them within 2-3 days. Or else u can cut them into small pieces and freeze too. But i prefer the first method. I like fresh coconut instead of frozen.

Frozen chappathis and parottas r all such good help. I always have them in my freezer.I have also tried making chappathis and freezing them. You can roll out the chappathi and stack them,seperating each one with thin plastic sheets or butter paper.Then pack a batch of 5-6 in a zip lock bag and freeze. No need to defrost them...just cook as normal chapathis.
