Swap Fast Foods For Cooking Your Own Meals

The schedules that we keep which are so full of work and friends and family, leave very little time for our own endeavours. We may say that we have ‘time to ourselves’, but if it’s being said between rushed mouthfuls of some unhealthy or junky ‘fast food’ or take-away, perhaps it would benefit you to take a look at your lifestyle and make a bit more time to keep yourself healthy. Even ethnic take-away can be unhealthy if it is prepared with poor quality ingredients and cooked in low quality oils!

Many people don’t realise the power they hold when they can prepare their own meals in under ten minutes – Not only do you know for sure that it’s healthy, but you don’t have to worry about having less time for yourself.

If you were eating out at a restaurant you’d still have to wait for someone to cook your meal. That can easily take up to an hour, maybe more. And don’t think the food at a restaurant is all fresh and just cooked on the spot for you – you can assume that most of it has been pre-prepared, and is kept warm for hours until it is heated up and served to you.

Only if you pay a premium over and above of what is considered “average” you will get genuinely fresh cooked meals. But you still have to wait almost an hour for it – just this time it is so you get the impression the Chefs in the kitchen have been slaving away on your meal and made a great effort. It’s all show!

In comparison, if you cook your own meal from fresh ingredients, you know 100% it’s fresh, and you know what went into it. And it doesn’t have to take ages to prepare and cook a meal, far from it. Take for instance Thai meals. They only take between five and ten minutes in most cases, so consider that as an accurate measure of how little time it can take to produce great meals.

Largely these meals can be completed in under ten minutes if they comprise of a base of fresh vegetables and meat or seafood.

Obviously it may take longer depending on your level of skill, but the sooner you start practicing, the better – there’s no substitute way to learn except to try and make mistakes, then try again. Of course if you want a fast and easy way to learn you look for a skilled Thai Chef who can show you the ropes and teach you all the shortcuts, making your cooking job a lot easier and more enjoyable.

Often we shy away from cooking Thai food because of the notion that every Thai meal is supposed to have garlic and onion in it. For those who have tried consuming garlic, onions or any similarly strong-smelling bulbs (which have fantastic health benefits by the way), we often didn’t enjoy the aftermath of bad breath, smelly skin and general pungent aroma emitting from your general direction, that’s perfectly understandable to think Thai food just goes with this nasty side-effect.

Not in all cases obviously though, so that means there is still plenty of opportunity for experimenting and substitution of ingredients.

Thai food can be very tasty and nutritious without containing any garlic or onions. It is just a matter of finding a smart Thai Chef who can teach you to cook without these spices
