My roommate cooks strong smelling food?

My roommate frequently cooks food that leaves a strong odor in our apartment that I'm not a fan of. I've tried opening windows, spraying air freshener and turning on a fan after she cooks which kind of helps. But sometimes, I don't back to the apartment until hours after she has cooked and the smell has permeated our entire apartment. I don't want to tell her to stop cooking, but I also don't like the way our apartment smells sometimes.

Any suggestions?

    Take the Kitchen out and put it outside.

    close the kitchen door to the entertainment of the home! carry it closed and open the living house windows, use an exhaust fan, then while complete mist the total room down with Febreeze or OdoBan. I even have open plan severe-high quality Room so there's no longer something to sidestep all cooking odors and greasy fumes from permeating something of this living living house! that's concepts-blowing to entertain in as every person continually lands up in the kitchen any technique!

    You could politely ask her to have a window open and a fan blowing while she's cooking, instead if you doing it after, and see if that helps.

    Does your stove have a vent fan? If it does, ask her to run the fan while she's cooking. It should help.
