One thickens all and all based on one<\/h1>\n
C<\/strong>ooking is art, more so to see how things come together during the process.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

L<\/strong>et’s take cooking a potato dish for example and see how this one dish could bring benefits to your other dishes that you are cooking for the same meal.<\/div>\n

Menu of the day<\/h2>\n
L<\/strong>et’s start with our menu: Potato and Carrots, Stir Fry Green Beans, and Shrimp with Pepper.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

W<\/strong>hat is common among those dishes, you guess it! Potatoes (thickening agents for the less obvious dishes)<\/div>\n

Let’s start<\/h2>\n
F<\/strong>irst start boiling water; add about 1\/3 to 1\/2 of water covering a pan for boiling.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Next peel, clean and slice your potato and carrots then add them into the pot once the water is boiling.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

C<\/strong>over the lid and lower the heat to let it simmer for about 10 mins or until potato is cooked and the resulting broth is thickening.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

I<\/strong>n the meantime, while boiling the potatoes, take out and defrost your frozen shrimp by submerging them in cold water.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

N<\/strong>ext, string your green beans then wash them and prepare some onion and green or red pepper, clean and slice them.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

O<\/strong>nce the potato and the carrot has done, take them out from the pan onto another pan or wok for stir fry, adding spices: pepper, oregano, and garlic salt, then mix and stir to finish.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

O<\/strong>n the pan with the potato broth: where you had fished out your potatoes and carrot, turn on the heat to medium and add onion and green\/red pepper then mix and stir to cook a bit before you add your shrimp in (now defrosted in the water).<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

T<\/strong>hen add the shrimp mixing with pepper, onion, the potato broth (now thickening) and the  spice: black\/white pepper, salt and etc., then covering the lid and let it simmer.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>fter adding the shrimp and starts cooking, look for the sign of the shrimp to start to curl, that means the shrimp is done (Please check with a food thermometer, to be around 160 F).<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

F<\/strong>inally, turn off the heat and plate it immediately.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

N<\/strong>ow, with the same pot you have just done with the shrimp dishes, still have some potato broth, and fill about 1\/5 pot of water and start to boil the water.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

W<\/strong>ait till the water boils then put in your green beans and let it simmer for about 7 minutes or to your liking for the firmness on the beans.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

A<\/strong>nd when the water recedes from boiling, mixed with the remaining potato broth, it would be time for you to add your spice to the bean and finish the dish.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

N<\/strong>ow, enjoy all three of your dishes for the thick and creamy texture on the meal you have just made in one fell swoop of cooking a single potato dish!<\/div>\n
