Why is it difficult to cook on hills ?
At high altitudes, atmospheric pressure is lower, reducing the boiling point of water as compared to that at sea level.
On hills at high altitudes due to low pressure boiling point of water becomes low as compared to sea level. Hence sufficient heat is not given to food. So it is difficult to cook
