Cooking Products for Eating Better with LESS FAT!

Firstly the tools of the trade. We love the new cast iron range from Berghoff as stocked by simplykitchenware.com. This range is lightweight and contains an advanced non stick coating; not only preventing your food from getting stuck or burnt on but also preventing the need for non essential fats. We recommend 4 pans for your kitchen; grill pan, saute pan 18cm, Wok and deep saucepan. The range is light weight and has detachable handles which means you can put the item in the oven easily. We were amazed that in just a few moments in the washing bowl the pans were clean!

Top tip during cooking is to have some kitchen roll/paper on hand, you can use this to gently mop up those non essential oils released during cooking to make your food healthier and get rid of those non essential calories.

Top foods to cook in your Grill/Saute Pan - no oil or fats needed!

• Steak - top tip make sure the pan is hot before placing. The grill pan will give you a charring effect
• Chicken breast - put a whole chicken breast between 2 pieces of clingfilm, bash out with a rolling pin till flatten. season with salt, pepper and a squeeze of lemon and rub in a teaspoon of balsamic oil.
• If you love fish with that grilling effect then again the grill pan is perfect and easy to clean afterwards! If you have more delicate fish use the sautepan and control the heat.

Top foods to cook in your Wok - no oil or fats needed unless adding as a flavour
Woks aren't just for stir fry, why not use it to cook a curry or thai food? the dish is perfect to serve at a dinner table.
Consider the following for a healthier change;

• Creme fraiche of greek yogurt instead of cream
• Seasame oil instead of olive oil or sunflower oil for stirfrys, this also gives the vegetables another falvour
• This wok is perfect for cooking spices as you need no oil and therefore release the full flavor of the spice.
• Using your Wok for finishing pasta dishes will ensure you get sauce coated on all the strains of pasta. This is perfect for Spaghetti Carbonara.

And that about wraps it up! Berghoff pans and a little care mean FAR less calories in your food, effortlessly!
