How long to fry vegetables

Cooking time for vegetable roasts depends on the size and type of vegetable, cooking pan, and heat. Usually, vegetables like broccoli, onions, potatoes, cauliflower, and carrots take 5-10 minutes to roast. On the other hand, it takes 2-3 minutes to fry spinach and zucchini. Its color is a good way to tell if a vegetable is cooked properly. Their color indicates that the vegetables are cooked. Note, do not boil vegetables on high heat as they may cook for 1-2 minutes in their stored heat after removing from heat.

Store your leftover roasted vegetables well after eating them. They are suitable for 3-4 days if stored properly. Do not store hot vegetables directly in the refrigerator, which can spoil them. Remove from the oven and cool for at least 1-2 hours, then store in an airtight container in the fridge. Remember not to combine multiple roasted vegetables as they spoil each other's taste and aroma. Heat well before eating. Add a little water and salt to taste.
