My last post for the Bachelor Cooking was a list of tips to manage your kitchen and how to explore the cooking.
Essentials for the Bachelor Kitchen - ingredients which are a must have to save your soul in the kitchen.
Tomatoes or Tomato Puree
Makes it easy to put in a little water and your "Sabzi" gets a nice gravy for it.
Cheese
I prefer keeping slices and also the spread.
Olives / Mushrooms
These are life essentials I think - Pasta can't be made without them. And pasta is a mood-changer food. Also mix them with a few greens, some dressing and a bowl of salad is good to go.
Herbs, Spices, Oregano, Black Pepper, Hot Sauce
Finding green chillies in the fridge can be a challenge, so I prefer keeping enough hot sauce and other spices for that easy use.
Pasta Sauce / Pasta Packs / Noodles / Chinese Sauces
Elements to toss that meal when an intensive cooking session is what you don't want to indulge in.
Booze
Keep a variety. Drinking alone can be boring.. so I like to have a mix - Beer, Vodka and the faithful Wine and Scotch. Stock-up before you run out... Domino's delivers .. the local wine shop, very rarely!
Chakna / Namkeen
How can booze go without this... haha! Kidding - keep a few wafer packs handy .. mid-night cravings have to be taken care. Also that hunger pang just between the evening tea and dinner is attended.
And some other things on my list include:
