At some point I learned to clean as I cook, washing each item immediately as I’m done with the step that uses it. If you can get in the habit, it’s so much easier. Never a huge stack to clean and nothing sits there getting stuck on the pot/plate/whatever. Dishes are done before sitting down to eat and there’s only a couple when you’re done eating.
You don’t need any more than 2 cooking vessels be that a pot and pan or 2 pots. If you use more stop it! Also do the bloody dishes I ain’t your mother! How can 1 person use 4 plates and 12 forks before dinner in 1 day!?! How!

I have been asking my wife this for 3 years now. She still hasn’t been able to give a satisfactory answer.
What are you on about? Just the other night I had a pan for roasting seeds, a pot for building a sauce, a pan for cooking protein and another pot for cooking my starch. And that’s just a Tuesday meal. If I made a dedicated effort to be minimal with vessels, I’d still have to wait for them to cool for cleaning. Also, to all the clean while you cook advocates on here, that’s easier to do with a known preparation. When you’ve Just downloaded a new recipe and you have no idea what you are doing, your often don’t have the bandwidth to leave the project and start cleaning.

Then maybe read the recipe before you start.
Protein and starch together could even put them in a roasting dish instead, and a sauce pot.
I dunno abouts seeds? What seeds are you roasting and how was this incorperated into the meal?
Im one guy so my food is simple one pot meals usually or two pot meals if I get fancy.
Even just rinsing before food dries/hardens helps a lot for washing later. That’s what I do.
If that’s how your kitchen ends up after cooking, I think you need to learn how to clean as you cook. That, or just stay outta my way.
Ahh yes, the Perfect One-Pot, Six-Pan, 10-Wok, 25-Baking Sheet Dinner.
This is my gf in the Kitchen. Well, this is her in any room in the flat. Somewhat frustrating because she sure as shit didn’t treat the flat she lived in with her mates like that…
The disappointment on his face is the same as mine after too.
Me after every Hello Fresh meal
That’s me after just making toast with scrambled eggs
