• Arrange all your cooking utensils, aids and food stuffs close-by prior to the commencement of the cooking. For instance, when you are cooking beans, blend the chili pepper paste you will use to complete the meal and make it available within the cooking area before you start cooking the beans. Immediately the meal becomes soft enough to your satisfaction, add the chili pepper paste to the beans at once. Don’t allow the pot to get cold before pouring in the chili pepper paste to avoid wasting energy (cooking gas)

• Make sure your pot is properly covered with its lid to avoid heat loss

• Ensure the surfaces of your burner and pot are very clean and free from food residues or particles

• Ascertain that there’s no leakage in your gas system

• Desist from adding too much water to the meal you are preparing
