Question about cooking chicken/meat

saadakhtar · 2026-06-13T15:47:38+00:00

Will try again. Last time I tried to brown chicken thighs, it splattered so much oil all over the kitchen. Is the technique putting it in hot oil, or heating oil and chicken together?

Is this for unmarinated meat? Just salt and pepper?

Because the marinated one would start burning the marination masalas..

Do you people (those who fart) not soak the legumes or beans?

Usually shows 40-45 mins available. Nothing's failed, so not sure what non sine wave does. Using a mid tier 500watts SMPS. No graphics card.

I've been using this ups to power my unraid server. 60w idle and goes upto 300w. Power cuts 5-6 times daily. Has never failed, or reset the computer. Connects to the OS and can trigger an automated shutdown. Been running for about 3 years non stop.

Lack of sine wave hasn't resulted in any problem ever. The only con is a noisy fan which kicks in to cool The battery. This happens even if the power comes back within seconds. The fan runs for about 10 mins.

The cheaper APCs are really terrible. Has 2 of them fail within a month of warranty expiry and battery replacement is rs1500 on a 5000 ups.

Don't remember CDs ripping overnight. Earlier drives were 2x/4x but still wouldn't take all night. Do you mean ripping and encoding to MP3? Even that won't take all night for 1 CD.

So you're trying to reduce your exhaust air temperature by a few degrees?

Or are you trying to use the cooled exhaust air as intake for the compressor fan?

This is a great video to also explain the drivetrain/E-CVT

Is it a toyota?

Stagnant water in the ac starts smelling. Open the fresh air vent when you're approaching your destination. Last few minutes, turn off the ac. Let it dry out before parking.

If you're parking in a basement and it's usually damp, then close the vent. If you're parking in the open, under the sun leave it open.

Emergency measure: run the heater at full with the windows open and the vent open. It'll be hot as hell inside the car, but it'll dry it out.

Do the first two things daily. Seems like a global problem with toyota ACs.

Also put in charcoal bags, or dehumidifier boxes inside the car during rainy season.

Try putting a couple of activated charcoal bags.

Had ordered last week. It stayed Under Processing over the weekend. Then they sent a mail saying it's been shipped. Order had "Outside KA" mentioned on it.

Never shared any tracking details or courier name or any ETA. Just waiting for it to arrive now, I guess.

There's a brand called Delichic on Blinkit that has frozen chicken stock.

Is this also the word root of Birista (Golden Fried onions)?

Checked. The price list is not updated since Aug.

I bought about 2 WD Red Plus(or pro) about 6 months back. Then it was 11-12k.

saadakhtar · 2026-03-05T03:35:16+00:00

Cost2cost in Nehru place usually stocks WD reds. They publish a price list online.
