Cooking tip

Cooking tip - You should avoid frying any foods at all costs. This process destroys a lot of the essential nutrients plus when heated to a very high temperature the fats in the oil become unhealthy. . It is best for red meats as well as for the chicken, fish and poultry to be grilled or baked, preferably without the use of any grease. You can try using marinades to give these ingredients a tasty flavor.
