Nutritional Tips
This is one of the dishes cooked without oils. Simmering is one of the best methods of cooking without oil. Roasting, steaming, boiling, and grilling, there are different ways of cooking. When you are cutting down on oils, simmering is also a good idea to do so. You can put all the ingredients in the pan with seasonings, and then some types of natural fat (tuna, fish, beef, pork, chicken) will help to add more flavour. In this way, without using any additional oil, ingredients can be cooked nicely, remaining soft and moist.
Chicken mince or turkey mince is generally lower in fat compared to beef or pork. They are a good source of protein and vitamin Bs. Chicken or turkey are not heavy/fatty but are still meat (some parts are fattier than others, e.g. breast is less fat compared to thigh). Therefore, they give nice flavours to the dish. They can be incorporated into many recipes.
