Tip:

It is a good idea not to allow the cooker to whistle. When you feel that the cooker is about to whistle, slow down the heat. This way the ingredients will not fly away with the release of steam. This method although takes a slightly longer time but you will save a lot cleaning time. Also it is a silent way of cooking, not disturbing to older people and children sleeping as well.
