A small tip to store Veg. in Fridge for a long time Hi all, I am storing Veg. in fridge for 2 weeks to 4 weeks freshely. I want to share with u all . Here in my place we won't get Inidan veg.. for getting Inidan grocery we have to go min..45 miles. so I used to store like this. To store green chillies 1. Wash it & dry it for some time on a cloth or paper 2.Remove the stems. 3.Wrap it in a Sof tissue paper, & keep in a air tight container (or) any polyethene bag. 4.S o that we can store it for 1 month For Tomatoes,Papdi(chikkudu kaya),ladies finger,Cocccinia(Dondakaaya), Goover(goru chikkudu) ,.etc., wash & dry. To store this veg in fridge wrap it in A soft tissue & keep in a polyethene cover. NOTE:- REMOVE VEG. FROM FRIDGE WEEKLY ONCE , WIPE IT WITH DRY CLOTH OR TISSUE DRY FOR 1/2 HR AGAIN WRAP &STORE IT. SO fRESHELY U CAN USE TILL 1 MONTH For karela u can frozen it, Wash karela & let it dry for some time. chop it what ever shape u want, keep in Ziploc cover or polyethene cover. & I used to frozen Coccinia,goovar also. I used to store some Indian leafy veg also .. like Thotakoora, Gongura. While using this frozen veg..keep in Microwave for 1 or 2 mins & use it. I think this will help some people whoever won't get Inidan veg.. like us. I am happy to share these with u all. Thanku IL Bye Suneeta :wave

A small tip to store Veg. in Fridge for a long time Hi Suneeta, Thanks for posting good tips for vegs. I am wondering how do you store clinthro( kotti mere) for long time.
HI Kalpana,Rupa & tulasi, Thanku for ur replies. Tulasi..I am frozening Cilantro also from last 2 months. That cilantro flavour will not go out. But i donno is it healthy way to store like that. For cilantro:- Wash it ...Drain the water. Wipe & dry for 1 to 2 hrs on a cloth. then chop it , put in a Ziplock cover & store in Freezer. Thanku Bye Suneeta
Quick & Easy cooking?? Hi ladies, Hope everyone is doing great! Im not sure which forum to post this, probably we may need a General Discussion forum under Recipes section?.. Anyway, my question is what do u do to make ur cooking easier? Like What do u do to prep and also Im looking for quick & easy recipes.. I know there are lot of recipes out here from Mrs.CV and other people.. Please point to me which are all much quicker to do. I would love to watch Indianized version of 30mts cooking by RachelRay if anyone broadcasts that. :mrgreen: Any suggestion please.. :wave
easy cooking Hi Selvi, How r u and baby boy? Here r some things u can do to make ur cooking easy n quick.......... whenever u get time make ginger garlic paste and store it. use tomato puree instead of tomatos.make puree n store it.(otherwise u can get readymade puree frm market). If u r working u can made pastes on weekends. keep boiled potatos in ur fridge so that when ur lil champ is not in mood to let u go for cooking then u can use that. boiled potato curry and dry boiled potato dish can b made in 5 minutes. u can add these potato in any dish like u can add with brinjal,peas,capsicum and cabbage.potato will not take time to cookand brinjal,cabbage,capsicum and peas takes little time to cook.(fry these in some oil ,mix wd tadka n potato n ur dry dish is ready in no time) Even u can keep ur seasoning(I m not sure word is right)means tadka ready . Make it in big quantity n store it.U can make ur dals quickly by adding this. just boil the dal and mix this tadka in that. hope I m of some help.
