The ground reality is food is something that everyone craves for, but it’s also important to set priorities and manage out the time for proper prayers by easily applying these Ramadan kitchen tricks and tips.   

These are the basic mantras that would surely help you in managing your kitchen like never before.

Plan out your meals!
When it comes to cooking, it’s perfect if you are planning before what you’re gonna cook. Here’s the gist of the idea, take a paper and jot down the meals that you would like to prepare for the fast for the first 10 days. If it goes according to the plan then you can proceed with the other days. Additionally, If you know what you’re gonna cook, it ultimately makes your efforts worth the time.

Froze your food!
Here’s another method, frozen food helps a lot and can save your time. If you think it’s going out of your budget then you can make some frozen fast food yourself such as samosas or rolls or even some chatnis to go with these junk foods.

Clean your kitchen immediately.
Most of the people face a lot of problem in cleaning the dishes. It doesn’t take much time before we face the heap of dirty dishes that needs to be washed. The trick is to wash out every utensil as you use it. Because if you’re keeping everything for the last moment then you’ll be making yourself more frustrated than ever.

Don’t literally over-cook number of dishes.
The essence of working without stress is to decrease the number of dishes that are cooked. Most of the food which is cooked is mainly wasted. It’s better to take the best approach and cook light, go for 1 heavy dish and 2 light dishes so that you won’t have to go through the tension of preparing heavy food. Keep the ravishing dishes for weekends or make them every 10th day.

Prepare before time:
This might sound like a very cliché method but it works the best, desserts and drink can be made beforehand. The preparation done before is always very productive because it gives you plenty of time to think and plan your other works.
