Question

For Shabbat, for all the reasons
Topic: Laws of preparing food for Shabbat
Question: How can one keep Shabbat without giving up hot food?

Answer

Shalom and blessings 

The simplest option is to place a Shabbat hot plate, or to cover the gas burners with a metal sheet (blech), and put the food on it already from Friday, so that the food keeps its heat very well. 

You can also cook on Friday “dry” foods such as schnitzel, bourekas, fish without much sauce, and the like, and reheat them on Shabbat on an upside-down pot or on an upside-down baking tray placed over the flame or on the hot plate.
