Chandni speaks her mind on the Food crisis and shares some simple ideas on using food well.

The issue hit home for me, because I know I can do better with quantities. While not consciously, being the “new” cook that I am, I don’t have a very good sense of proportions. So more often than not, the dal is always extra, and sometimes vegetables too.

The good thing is that the boy and I take left overs to work for lunch, so now, we really don’t waste or throw away food any more. But I know its extremely easy to fall in to the trap…I say so because I’ve been through it. Stuffing one bowl of dal/veg in some corner of the fridge and remembering it 4 days after…It takes little to remember such things…if we really want to make the effort.
