cook, turning occasionally
for 10 to 20 minutes.

is to start and cook at MED.
Meat may be breaded or
marinated in sauce before
frying.
Add salt or other seasoning
before cooking if meat has
not been smoked or
otherwise cured.
When melting marshmallows,
add milk or water.

longer time. Turn over
pancakes when bubbles
rise to surface.
Use large enough kettle to
prevent boilover. Pasta
doubles in size when cooked.

times per minute.
Stir frequently to prevent
sticking.

water and longer time.
