Healthy Cooking Tips: Recently, Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his address had made an important appeal regarding the use of edible oil. He said that if every family reduces the use of oil by 10%, it can prove to be a big step not only for health but also for the country’s economy.

Taking this idea forward, people are now changing their eating habits and the trend of “zero oil cooking” is spreading rapidly in homes, in which delicious food is being prepared even without oil.

Real taste of spices and vegetables

Zero oil cooking means not using oil at all while cooking. In this, methods like boiling, steaming or cooking the food in its own juice in non-stick utensils are used. With this method, not only does the taste of the food remain intact, but the real taste of spices and vegetables can also be felt. By using spices in the right way, delicious food can be prepared even without oil.

The meat should be marinated properly

Proper use of spices is very important in this method. Instead of oil, ginger, garlic, onion, tomato and dry spices add good taste to the food. Apart from this, if vegetables or meat are marinated properly then their taste increases even more. Cooking food on low flame in a non-stick pan, pan or cooker also makes the food cooked in its own juice and becomes delicious.

Oil is required even in boiled food

In zero oil cooking, steam cooking is also very beneficial. Due to this, the nutrition of vegetables and pulses is maintained and their taste also improves. There is no need of oil in boiled food, but there is no reduction in taste. This type of food is light for the body and easy to digest.

Helps in staying fit for a long time

Nowadays, problems like obesity, heart diseases and cholesterol are troubling many people. In such a situation, zero oil cooking is emerging as a great option. It not only keeps the body light but also helps in staying fit for a long time. After Prime Minister Modi’s appeal, people have now started understanding that even small changes can be beneficial for both health and the country.

Use of correct methods and correct materials

Zero oil cooking has now become not just a trend but a new thinking. It teaches us that oil is not needed for taste, but using the right method and right ingredients is more important. Now people are making it a part of their daily routine and moving towards healthy food. This small change can make the kitchen of every home more healthy and better.
