O-POSsible !

A dear friend of mine has introduced me to a new style of cooking called OPOS ( One Pot One Shot). The essence of the style is that all the cooking is done in one vessel namely the pressure cooker. She's even enrolled me in the group's page on Facebook and I get to see all the different OPOSed dishes by all the members.

This style should be a boon for someone like me - a working mother who is short of time ( perpetually ) and who is not so proactive and adventurous on the culinary side. Ardent followers of OPOS claim that it reduces cooking time, reduces cleaning as it uses only one vessel and that it is more nutritious since it locks in all the flavours in one vessel. However, I'm finding it very difficult to switch on my mind to this new mode of cooking.

This dear friend convinced me to try an OPOS recipe last weekend and I wasn't sure what to make of the end result. Yes, it did reduce the cooking time and the taste was good but it hasn't converted me into a huge fan. I just think it's my mind's inherent resistance to change that is preventing me from giving OPOS a good shot. Resistance to change is there at every level I guess - whether it's a young child refusing to try a new food or the older generation shying away from using the latest technology.

Well, as of now, I'm positive that I should give this another try. I will keep you posted.
