Step 1: You Will Need

  • 1 sharp knife
  • 1 chopping board

Step 2: Place your Chopping Board on a Flat Surface

Make sure your chopping board is on a flat, even surface. You could place a tea towel under the board to prevent it from slipping.

Step 3: Prepare your Vegetable

Peel and de-root your veg

Step 4: Slice the Vegetable

Holding the veg steady with one hand use the other to slice through the veg with a rocking motion, keeping the tip of the knife on the board, chopping it into strips of a quarter to half an inch thick.

Step 5: Cut into Cubes

Then, turn the strips around and cut into cubes, remembering to remove the excess from the board and prevent it getting overloaded.
