Let’s agree that cooking in the summer can be quite a task. Sometimes the extreme humidity, sweat, and heat of the flame become unbearable. This is why many of us prefer to avoid the hassle altogether and look for easier alternatives. When we say easy alternatives, the first two things that come to our mind are immediate ordering or dining out. While we agree that these two options do not require manual labor, neither option is sustainable for the months-long summer in India. As a result, quick recipes are born as a better and more sustainable option for everyone. If you ask us, we always come up with quick and easy summer recipes that can help create a nutritious home-cooked meal in no time. This also helps us to unleash our creativity when we want to cut down on cooking time in our kitchen.
