If you are tired of Atkins and South Beach and want to eat tasty and healthy, then I would suggest you to resort to the Joanne Eglash style of cooking. She improvises cooking techniques to improve your food habits by helping you with very easy tips. The healthy cooking modes involves steaming, grilling, roasting, baking, poaching and microwaving.
Her healthy cooking resolution speaks of using a vegetable steamer instead of boiling the vegetables as boiling the vegetables in excessive water not only makes it soggy but also take all the required nutrients out of the vegetables. Therefore, vegetable steamer is the best way to preserve flavor and nutrients of vegetables. The second most important resolution is to cook without oil or with very less oil. Joanne follows the advice of New York-based Joy Bauer, a leading nutrition, and uses olive oil and canola oil, which are considered to monounsaturated fats.
If you are looking for a fatless recipe and an easy one I have something to share with you and that is Salted Pomfret Fillets.
Ingredients:
1 whole Pomfret fillet gutted and cleaned and gashed
1 cup salt
Pepper powder
Cumin Powder

1 tbsp lemon juice

1.Cover a baking tray with half cup salt and place fish atop it and cover the fish with other half cup of salt. Bake the fish at 200 degree Fahrenheit, till salt has turned into a brown crust.
2. After the fish is baked scrape off the salt from the body of the fillet taking care that you don’t break the flesh. Sprinkle lemon juice over the gashes and the whole fillet and season it with pepper powder and cumin powder and garnish it with coriander sprigs.Have this exotic fish with a glass of white wine.
