A weekly menu without cooking every day: the freezer trick
Plan meals with pelmeni, khinkali and lavash: serving ideas, portions and a practical approach to shopping.
Deciding on every dinner from scratch takes time. Keeping a few products ready to cook and a short list of sides can make the menu more varied. The idea is to plan shopping and preparation, not to promise that every dish takes the same number of minutes.
The formula
- Monday: pelmeni with sour cream and a seasonal salad.
- Wednesday: khinkali as a main course with vegetables alongside.
- Friday: lavash filled with roast vegetables and your favourite filling.
- Another combination: pelmeni in broth with herbs for a different presentation.
Why it works
Plan portions before taking out the product and follow its storage and preparation instructions. Foods do not all cook in the same way or require the same defrosting method. Setting aside what you need helps organise the remaining stock and avoid duplicate purchases.
The shopping that lasts a week
Count how many people will eat each day and calculate quantities from the portions in your recipe. Pair pelmeni, khinkali or lavash with vegetables and the sides you will use. In a professional kitchen, adapt the same approach to the number of services and available storage space.
