The grass radical reminds me of that it is related to vegetation or in this case vegetables, which each dish should have to be healthy

This character has the grass radical that is seen to be sitting on something that looks like a campfire. You cook meals such as smores on top of a campfire. Smores would be an example of a 菜。

for this one i think they are cooking a plant (grass 艹) with the radical of fire below it and below that is the radical of wood, showing theyre cooking by burning wood, so it makes a dish.

The top of the character looks like grass which is the character’s radical. Grass also reminds me about vegetables and health.

The grass radical looks like wood which is being used to cook food, with the three strokes under the grass radical being the flames.

The grass radical and the 3 dots remind me of fire. Hence, vegetable can be made with grass and fire applied.

Both grass and wood radicals are used which makes me automatically think of vegetable dishes.

It looks to me like a chef wearing his chef cap. Furthermore, at the end of preparing the dish, it is served with a green topping like basil leaves.

Imagine a grass field and the 2 strokes are individual blades of grass standing upright.
