How to get dinner on the table with everything hot, delicious and perfectly cooked isn?t a mystery in most restaurants. All it takes is a game plan and good timing.

In this Episode of Emeril Green we'll meet Nadia. Nadia loves food and loves to entertain. The trouble is, Nadia just can't get her timing down. On "Slow Cooker," Emeril will help Nadia get her timing together with a game plan featuring dishes like Ropa Vieja With Pico De Gallo and Avocado Crema.

Cooking is all about timing, and it's not hard when you know some simple tricks!

TIPS:

  • Make a cooking game plan. Start with what takes the longest to cook and work your way down the list to end with the last minute items.

  • Avocado flesh browns when exposed to the air; rub cut sides with lemon or lime juice, or use a little extra acid, such as sour cream, in your guacamole to cut down on this unsightly oxidation.
