Tell us about some of your mother's tips that you use the most when it comes to cooking, be it a meal, a sweet, a drink or a dessert.

First of all, let me tell you that my mom cooks very delicious food, so understand that my mom is a very good chef. When it is done and the daughters go to their own homes, many take such tips from their mothers that she used to use.

The first tip that I would like to share with you is that my mother always told me that salt and pepper should be added very carefully to the food because there are many people in the house who have blood pressure problems and salt intake. Due to the fact that their blood pressure is not controlled, that is why they have advised me to add less salt and if anyone wants to take more salt, he can add it later.

And if we talk about sweets, my mother always taught me to eat sweets in moderation because there are many people who don't like sweets too much then they don't like to eat things. And those who like sweet food can eat it in peace because if it is moderate. As today many people are suffering from diabetes and they have been told to eat sweets, so if anyone wants to eat a little sweet, he eats it easily.

Have you ever called your mother to ask her how she used to prepare rice, meat, etc.?

Yes, of course, I have called my mother many times and asked her because my rice often breaks or gets stuck together, so many guests do not like to eat rice, that's why I called her many times and asked her. If I prepare biryani or pulao or ole rice at home, how do I make sure that the rice does not stick together or break?

And most of my food has a smell of garlic and ginger, so I thought I should call my mom and ask, because my mom's food never smells of garlic and ginger, so in such small things and tips, etc. I asked my mom today, cell phones are used a lot, so it is very beneficial for us that we can easily communicate with our family members.

How do you feel when you reflect on whether I would have paid attention to my mother, we think we will always have her by our side, and then it weighs on us when they are gone.

Yes, every human being has to leave this world, but mother is such a beautiful gift from Allah, who teaches us to distinguish between good and bad, our mother is very important to us, the most important in our life. The role is always that of the mother who makes her daughters a good and good person.

Who would think that she would be separated from her mother but sadly, daughters have to go home one day and she thinks that her support system has been separated from her. When we are with our mother, we get to learn a lot from our mother like how to finish some household chores, how to wash clothes and most importantly how different members of the house are. How should food be prepared for the family so that the family likes the food because if many people do not like the food, then they point the finger at the training of the parents, which we do not like.

• The first tip I would like to share with you guys is to wash the dishes thoroughly before cooking.

• After that, when we start preparing some salty curries or rice, first of all, while browning the onions, we should be careful not to burn the onions, because if the onions are burnt, then the smell of the onions burnt will be added to the rice.

• Try that when we add the garlic ginger paste immediately after frying, cook it for about five to ten minutes so that the smell disappears and brown well and then add the tomatoes.

• And the most important thing is that many people's rice gets stuck together or breaks, so my mother always told me one thing, that rice should not be washed too often, because of which the rice breaks. Rice should be washed very gently.

• And when cooking rice for a lot of people, you get stuck in something that a lot of people don't like to eat, so for that I have a best tip that my mom always told me is that when we boil the rice, If you add it inside, you should add a little vinegar and two to three spoons of oil, which does not stick the rice at all.

• While cooking, when we roast the spices, many people's spices get burnt, for that I have a special tip that is to roast the spices on a low inch, if we roast the spices on a high inch, then the spices will burn. And the burnt aroma of the spices will add to the food, so spices should always be roasted lightly.

• The use of salt in salty food should be reduced. If one wants to take salt quickly, it can be added later and if one wants to make a sweet dish, the sweetness should be kept moderate so that everyone can eat it easily.
