OK...you see all the shows on TV...Food Network, PBS and the rest...all these hotshot cooks making it all look easy, with the best ingredients and pots and pans that are always gleaming and perfect.
NOW...you come home from work, try to get something together for a meal, maybe have the right stuff in the frig and pantry (plastic bags of veggies, cans of tomato stuff, bread crumbs, grains, cheeses - you know - all the stuff except the one thing you forgot) and try to lay it out in some order before starting the cooking process that you are trying to hurry because you are hungry and want to pretend that you are some kind of chef.
Seeing some show where someone fried a few cactus leaves in half a pot of EVOO, one is tempted to wonder what happens to all that oil after the process. No one has a show on TV that explains how to clean the kitchen of all that spatter and dispose of the excess oil and fat. Please share your real world solutions, please.
At the risk of sounding cheap, I'm not spending twelve+ dollars on a bottle of EVOO to fry a couple of spuds.
Thanks.
