What you’re supposed to do is get your MISE EN PLACE, that means get your shit ready, prep all the ingredients, mince and dice whatever and get them into prep bowls, and then start cooking when everything is actually ready to be cooked.
If you want to do dishes while you’re cooking,
the cooking is passive
adjust the heat, dawg, nothing should be burning in the 2-3 minutes it takes between stirring to wash something. If it is, you’re cooking it too hot
When I say I get distracted, I don’t mean that I do something for 2-3 minutes and then come back. I completely forget I was cooking for sometimes long periods of time. Even if I’m still in the kitchen.
Timers dawg, timers, if shits on heat set a timer. At least in the 2-3 minutes you’re trying to multi task if it goes off you’ll have the chance to be like “what the fuck was that for OH MY GOD MY ONIONS”

That makes sense. I don’t know why I don’t do that already.
It’s cause you didn’t think about it and you’re not in the habit of doing it, but that’s what we’re here for
Maybe leave a note for yourself reminding you to use timers next time you cook so you get into the habit
I just a put a sticky note in the kitchen! Thank you
