After a big meal all you want to do is relax. The last thing you want to do is spend the next hour cleaning pots, pans and cooking utensils.
So rather than leaving all of clean-up until after dinner, why not wash what you can while you cook. You can basically clean anything that you don't need to serve your meal.
Not only will you save time but it will be such a relief to only have to wash your dinner plates and some silverware at the end of your meal.
