1. Steaming food by bowl method

-cover the food container well with grease proof paper to avoid direct contact with steam
- Let the bowl stand in a pan of boiling water[water bath] and cover with a tight lid.
-Always add boiling water o the water bath when necessary to maintain the temperature of the water bath and therefore continuous production of seam.
-Do no allow the water bath to dry to avoid burning the food.

2. Deep fat frying

-Coat the food to be fried especially non starchy foods to prevent them from breaking into pieces, overcooking, and being soggy with fat.
-Heat oil to the right temperature.
-Lower food gently into the oil to avoid spillage and burns.
-Do no put oil more than half full in the pan because this may boil over into the fire and cause fire break out.
- Do not over fill/ load the pan to avoid accidents.
-Drain well before serving.

-Before putting the cake into the oven, pre heat it to the correct temperature.
-Avoid opening or slamming the door during baking especially before the cake sets.
