Nah I can't really cook but then again my boyfriend said that I was only dating him so I didn't have to learn lmao as he's training to be a chef. Luckily he said that as a joke :D.

I can cook simple things like chips, sausage, bacon, toast and stuff like that though.

I can make desserts, learnt a lot of things at school plus I can make most stuff using guides on the internet if I put my mind in it. I can't make like complicated meals or anything :/

Yeah my mum used to be a cooking teacher for a few years and is quite good herself so has made an effort to teach me and my sister how to cook. I can cook things like lasagne, spaghetti bolognaise, pastas and deserts and stuff like cakes

I'm okay. I made quorn spaghetti bolognese a few weeks ago which was quite nice. I tried making cupcakes a few days later which just tasted like flour.

I'm okay at cooking I guess. I do it every week at school but we're never really cooking things I'd like to eat (other than brownies and cakes!!). I'm pretty good at making pizzas, curries, cakes and other desserts. :)

Not at all. I am an awful cook, I'd like to think I've been improving a little though :P

Yes, easy stuff.

Ms.Aquamarine

I guess so. :P I can make spaghetti, rice with a couple of veggies in it, cake, cookies, and a few other things when I am in a really good mood. :)

LMAO how

were you trying to microwave it or something? :P

No I was seeing what it tasted like dry and whether you needed to put it in the oven LMAO. Then I asked a friend (who laughed her head off) and found out :(

But tbh, I also forgot whether chicken goes in the cupboard or fridge as well lala.

No. I am gonna make a terrible wife :( Need to marry a chef!

Well I did take food in school and learnt a lot there, but I haven't really cooked since then soooo probably not.

I can cook simple things such as Tuna Pasta, Spaghetti Bolognaise and Curry but that's probably about it. :P

Conspiracy.
07-07-2012, 09:11 PM
LOL I remember my sister trying to cook an egg in the microwave. She cracked the egg with a spoon and it blew up :')

:odey:
07-07-2012, 10:59 PM

I can do some stuff but nothing fantastic. I always worry about undercooking food so I always leave it in too long and burn stuff. I usually just get my brother to cook ;)

Oh god sounds like most of us are gonna starve in the future hehe

I can bake but not cook, it's not my fault when the packaging times are wrong :'(

I made mirangue earlier, easiest things to cook ever. Egg white and 45g of sugar per egg used (60g per egg if you like sweeter foods) Whisk the egg white until it becomes fluffy (sort of like small mountains, it takes about 15 minutes with an electric whisk on a low setting) then add the sugar a tea spoon at a time, whisk for 15 seconds on a medium setting then add another, when all the sugars added cook on 140 centigrade or gas mark 2 until they begin to brown then turn the heat off and leave in the oven to harden, remove when they're hard, et voila a tasty treat!

Yep. Cooked a three course meal for the sake of it once.

I can cook to an extent, just basic stuff though. Beans on toast. ;)

Depends what it is I am cooking :P one time I grilled a pizza by mistake.

I am really bad at cracking eggs!

13-07-2012, 02:57 PM
Not going to lie about this but I haven't really tried. I'll start and see how well I can do it, I can do basic stuff and I've done some cooking things back in high school. The cheesecake I made was great, so yeah! :P

Can I ****! I can barely slice a piece of cheese off lmao, I can kind of make poached egg! Used to be able to make these amazing biscuits, really really gorgeous - learnt it in school but then couldn't be assed making them for a long time and eventually forgot.

Amberr

oh I just found a thread from a while ago to demonstrate my cooking skills, think this pretty much explains all.

No offence bro, but lasanga is just cooking mince meat, putting in some pasta sauce, making up the white sauce (which is something like cheese, flour and milk) and then chucking it into the oven after you layer it. Not THAT hard.

Since I don't live at home, yes I can cook. I am not an extreme cook but I enjoy it. Last night was something, some medium-rare scotch fillet with rice and gravy.
I enjoy cooking with spices and pepper and chilli. Favourite type to make is probably curries and stir-fry and noodle soups.. damn!

i've been cooking/baking for myself since pre-teen, basically because my mum isn't the best cook, therefore i taught myself. made amazing crispy beef a while back which i thought was better than the ones i had in restaurants, but i usually prefer cooking caribbean dishes like saltfish/or banana fritters, dumplings, stews, or breads, cakes etc.

always makes me feel good when i'm cooking decent things from scratch whilst my housemates pop a pizza in the oven or just eat basic stir-frys every night.

Yeah I'm not suggesting it's particularly hard I'm just giving examples of what I can cook well and possibly enjoy cooking :) :P

Thisss! Even though one of my house mates is a P/T his cooking is limited to the microwave and oven.. and fried/scrambled eggs!

I know how to if I really need to, but at home my food gets made for me and at uni I usually make something quick and easy (aka throwing something in the oven for 20 minutes).

Shar
