A Look at an Efficient Cooking Session
As a challenge, I decided to see if I could prepare two Shabbat (sabbath) meals in an hour, not including cooking time.
Here’s the menu:
- Roast chicken with garlic, lemon juice, and oregano
- Potatoes in the pressure cooker
- Roast vegetables: Turnip, onion, garlic, beet, sweet potato, yellow pepper, rosemary.
- Cholent (a stew in the crockpot)
- Techina (sesame paste dressing).
- Cake, challah and soup from the freezer. I try to separate baking from cooking when I can, because they use different ingredients and tools.
- Salad, made by my kids closer to the meals.
