Information about Ovens
Hi,
I need some information about ovens… Is it good having a gas oven or electric oven…I know this question is stupid. My problem is i have learnt cooking all your recepies using a electric stove and oven. And now i am planning to shift my house… and my new apartment has gas connection… and the kitchen has gas oven. Once i tried makeing Roasted Chutney Paneer in my friends house ,she had gas oven and all the panner got stuck to the tray.It din cook properly. But in my current house i hav electric stove/oven.. and when ever i make the Roasted Chutney Paneer . it is perfet…
So my question is… is thr any difference in electric and Gas ovens…..which 1 is better.
Please i wil be happy if any one answers my question.
Thanks

Hi Anuja,
They are the soft kind and make sure you get the ones that are made of corn. They can be bought at any grocery store (Walmart, Kroger etc.)

I LOVE this recipe. So simple yet so filling. I live in a place where it’s hard to find mexican food, so this is a perfect compensation.
I’ve tried adding all sorts of veggies like green beans, peas, and radish, so each time its a little different flavor. Thanks for posting
