2. Think Like a Factory Line, and Work Clean
When someone starts out cooking, the most common inefficiency you will see is in task planning. For example, the recipe calls for four onions peeled, finely diced, and transferred to a large bowl. Doing each of these steps one at a time is a lot of time moving back and forth between the board, the trash bin, and the bowl. Not to mention picking up and putting down your knife etc.
Instead of running around in circles thing of prep like working in a factory: start by cutting off the end and splitting all of the onions. Next peel, then make all of your horizontal cuts so on and so forth until the entire task is completed. By doing this you'll find that the time you spend in the kitchen will not only be more efficient, but also neater, cleaner, and more organized.
