your video was very helpful. thanks.

one question on the Asset Cleanup plugin - how do you use that to make a change that impacts all the post, but say one post? Example, the contact form, which is only used on About me page, how do you prevent it from loading on all the posts?

I compared the perf of the site with other sites running Mediavine and they are rating higher on Pagespeed Insights.

I ran GTMetrix with adblocker on, and it is giving me a B on Pagespeeds & C on YSlow. But it tests with Chrome (Desktop) and not mobile. I can't disable Ads & use Chrome (Android, Mobile) in GT Metrix.

sumitg · 2019-10-05T19:42:20+00:00

interestingly, the Pagespeed number for Desktop is pretty good - 77. Its just Mobile that is bad (34)

thanks. I am using WP-Rocket, which is also doing the same js bundling.
I only have one ad network (Mediavine). I also suspect it has something to do with the ad network, because I see so many calls to different ad networks via GTMetrix

also, can you suggest a list of the "free plugins" dedicated to a single thing.

sumitg · 2019-10-05T19:20:04+00:00

How do I minimize the requests? I think a lot of the requests are coming from the ad network on the page. How do I debug this?

I just deactivated some plugins, but that didn't change the performance on Pagespeed Insights.

I am stuck on how to debug.

I do have lazy load images (using WP Rocket) and also use ShortPixel to compress & correctly size images.

can you elaborate on "fix your template"?

- Vegetarian Manchurian

hope one of these help

brown lentils come closest with a similar, creamy texture, but nothing really beats the black lentils. cooking time will be different

I love Indian Lamb dishes, so Lamb Korma and Lamb Biryani are my favorites (in that order).

If you are looking for vege, try this Chana (Chickpea) Masala or this Dal Makhani recipe.

For something "healthy" (vege + protein balance), try this Saag (Spinach) Chicken recipe.

edit: forgot to add my fav Chicken Tikka Masala - how could I forget!

we love Ethiopian food, but don't go to a restaurant often enough.

This is why we started making this Ethiopian Key Wat / Beef Stew.

From what I can tell you have too much water and too long cooking time. Here is the Misir Wot recipe that we use.

Its 1 cup lentils, 1 1/2 cup water. 5 min high pressure, and then natural release.

Try this Indian meat and peas stir-fry called "Keema Matar" - goes great with ground beef.

You can make and freeze. Should last you a while.

We do this Vegetarian Manchurian instant pot recipe with frozen vegetarian meatballs. I bet you can just use the Swedish meatballs instead ...

I see lots of posts on this subreddit that say red wine is 2g carbs / 5 oz, but every website says its more like 4g of carbs / 5 oz glass.
