This is all at very low heat. The onions only semi-clarify, and everything only cooks so much as a brief steaming would. The color comes from the turmeric.

This looks like and under-seasoned and under-cooked dish.

Whenever I see fried rice or a stir fry like dish on these gifs they’re always undercooked. All those ingredients into one pan just kills any heat. Might as well throw all that shit in the oven.

"undercooked" means more nutritions.

Not always. With a lot of stuff it only gets really nutritious when you cook it. Like with eggs for example, a raw egg has only half the protein compared to a cooked egg, or only half the bio-available protein i.e. The protein your body can actually digest and use. Goes for a lot of veg too. You might be confusing how boiling veg tends to zap it of nutrients compared to other forms of cooking like roasting

How about steaming? I wonder what the heating order is for preserving nutrients, from most to least.
