Health care with taste !

Not only this, most of our sweets are not only full of sugar but are also fried. Gulab Jamun, Jalebi, Bundi ladoos etc. are examples of this. Now the questions arises that how should we maintain the specialty of our cooking and stay healthy?

We will try to give some options in this article today:

Different methods of Frying:

First of all consider various methods of frying, deep frying and light frying, whichever method you choose, be aware of the condition of the oil while heating.

The most important thing is that when the oil starts filling with smoke, it should be understood that it has become completely hot, at this temperature chemical changes start to occur which can be dangerous for health.

Cooking Without completely hot oil, a large part of the oil absorbs in the food, as a result of which we get oily and unhealthy food. This food increases the amount of fat in the body.

High oil temperature:

Keeping the oil at high temperature for a long time causes it to deteriorate. It starts producing a substance called Acrolein which can be harmful to the stomach. The oil which contains the amount of Acrolein starts to become black and sticky. Usually this does not happen at the time of frying the dishes in the houses, but as the oil is expensive, once used, we keep the remaining oil for reuse. Frequent use of oil increases the amount of Acrolein.

Some experts believe that the oil should not be kept for more than 15 minutes at the temperature of the smoke, and everyone knows that it is too short for 4-5 members and a small family to fry the whole, while olive and corn oil can be easily heated for a long time at high temperatures.

Sunflower oil, which is considered beneficial for the heart, also causes harmful chemical changes by heating it for a long time and at high temperatures. Vegetable cooking oils are considered better for frying, as they are less harmful to the heart than butter and ghee.

The second problem arises when the oil used is preserved under unsatisfactory conditions. Due to not preserving sufficient amount of oil, it starts spoiling. For this reason, eat more fried dishes sparingly, even if it is made at home.

This does not mean that we do not taste fried dishes; some dishes like Tikkis can be fried in both light and deep ways. In such a situation, you should choose a light frying option; it will be good for health. Oil frying is also saved by light frying and the problem of oil escape is also over.

Heat a little oil and add mustard, lentils, curry leaves, chillies etc., to it and pour it in a dish is called tempering. Tadka is not only used for fragrance in dishes, but also contains nutrients.

Some vitamins like A, D, E and K are soluble only in fat and it is also necessary to have some fat in food for its absorption in human body. This matches our old tradition, like carrot can be added with some oil, mustard and curry leaves in it to take full advantage of carotene from carrots.

There is another method of frying, in which a small amount of oil is heated in a pan and thinly sliced vegetables, seafood, chicken and meat, etc. are removed by stirring quickly in high heat. In this way, high temperature and short cooking time maintains their nutritional value and most of the vitamins and minerals are also safe. Chinese cuisine is more popular in India, so it can be a good recipe, which we can also adopt in our homes.

Finally remember that you can enjoy fried foods, but eat limited amounts of fat. After frying the dishes, sieve the excess oil thoroughly and place the fried food on brown paper, so that the paper absorbs as much of its fat. This will not add fat to your body and will not make you fat either. Rotis(Chapati) can be eaten instead of Bhatoora. Papad can be baked on fire instead of frying it. Adopt such methods. These small changes can be healthy.
