So, if you have rinsed it, immediately drain the vegetables. Basically, this vegetable can be mixed directly with the anointing spices. However, to make it last longer, mix these two ingredients while roasting them in a pan.
You also need to pay attention to how to roast it. First of all, heat a frying pan (without oil). Then add the vegetables that have been rinsed earlier. Roast briefly for up to 5 minutes so that the water evaporates. If so, add the ointment spices. Then stir until these two ingredients are evenly mixed, for approximately 5 minutes.
