We’ve all been there. You’re ready to fry up those delicious samosas you’ve been preparing for weeks, but when you try to turn on the stove, nothing happens. It’s gas load shedding time, especially during Ramadan when it’s needed the most. But don’t worry, there are solutions!
Get a gas cylinder: These are safe if installed correctly and can be a lifesaver during gas shortages. It might be slow using just one burner and you might need to position it oddly, but it’s better than nothing when you need to fry something.
Use an air fryer: If you’re okay with less oil and more crunchiness, an air fryer is a good option. It might not give the same texture, but it’s healthier and still tasty.
Microwave meals: If the gas cuts out during sehri, use the microwave. You can make oatmeal easily. Just mix oats, milk, and honey, then heat it in short bursts until it’s done. Add fruit and nuts for a complete meal.
Keep it simple: When you have gas, stick to simple meals like rice and chicken. It’s filling without the discomfort of fried food. Leftover chicken can be used for a quick sandwich for sehri the next morning.
