Tammy Fry breaks down the what, why, and how of batch cooking in this practical guide, complete with meal ideas based on her own family’s favourites.
Could batch cooking be the new fairy godmother of food preparation? With all the pressures of life, meal preparation can not only be intimidating but also seem impossible. We are all trying to juggle so many balls at once, and there is never enough time in the day to think about healthy family meals – not to mention the absolute lack of creativity at 6pm with a few hungry mouths to feed. I totally get it!
Batch cooking has transformed the way I feed my family and gives me a few precious minutes extra in the evenings to play a game with my kids or help them with their homework.
Batch cooking is the pre-preparing of recipes, which can be mixed and matched to create a variety of meals throughout the week. These meals are what I refer to as ‘bases’, and which will work with various other ‘last-minute-quick-cooks’ such as rice, quinoa or salads. For me, batch cooks are usually done on a Sunday and typically take around 1½ hours to prepare. It’s also a good time to do your juicing for the week, prepare overnight oats, chia breakfast bowls or even just wash and cut veggies for use later in the week.
Plan your meals for the week or have an idea of the meals you think you may like. Some examples:
Try to cook at least two bases, two to three veggies (just wash and chop, or pre-cook too) and two legumes (chickpeas, black beans). I make a lunchbox option for the kids as well, such as bliss balls, granola bars or muffins.
Make a shopping list. Don’t shop when you are hungry if possible, and be disciplined about keeping to the list. A way to maintain shopping discipline is to order fruit and veg from a local organic produce company and have them delivered on a Friday or whenever convenient for your chosen batch cooking day.
Clear your diary to accommodate batch cook day, turn on some music and get cooking!
