Can You Cook?

I can a little. When theres noone to feed me I can make tacos , scramble eggs , salads , tuna salad , rice , hot dogs, and I can cook meat. Howie but' you

I love cooking! I'm no chef, but I can cook just fine

Not much
But I am trying, if that counts for something !

i cant cook... for you people who can cook, my suggestion is why don't you guys come out with simple recipes for us and teach us how to cook

I watch my mom so thats how I learn.

I am brilliant cook. I started to train to eb a chef, but I hated the idea of the hours. I am yet to find something that I can't cook perfectly first time

I have book that my mother got me for Christmas '1001 Quick and Easy Recipes'. As much as I love cooking, I don't get much time to do it, because I am studying So I will share as many recipes from thatas I can

Apricot Chicken

1 Cup Apricot jam
1 (250g) Bottle of French salad dressing
1 (30g) package of dry onion soup mix
6 to 8 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves

- Combine the jam, dressing and soup mix
- Place chicken breasts in a large, buttered baking dish and pour the apricot mixture over the chicken.
- Bake uncovered at 160c (320F) for 1 hour, 20minutes and serve over hot rice.




This is from The Best 1001 Short, Easy Recipes. If you want me to post more, just let me know

m getting there

i can cook, id just rather not lolxx

hmmmm, i can follow directions pretty well but normally just bake everything lol, I am getting better and once I find a really good cookbook I know I will be good. Any suggestions on a good cookbook?

lol does microwave meals count? the only thing i can cook is pasta, i live on the stuff lol

i can cook and i love cooking although i can get a tiny bit frustrating

I can cook, steadily getting better - there's no substitute for being thrown into a flat and needing to cook at east once a week! My methods are somewhat questionable, though and I tend to look like a complete mess but the finished meal always comes out alright

i can cook

i learned from my mom.
i can cook a lot of filipino foods.

Mmm philipino! Do you know how to make avacado ice cream? I tried it at my filipino friend's house and I really wanna know how to make it cos no one believes me that it's delicious heh.

I got a recipe for avacado ice cream!

After I've tried it I'll let you know cos I'm unsure how it'll turn out *bites nails*. But here's a mega easy recipe that's extra yum - thai fish cakes. And even if you're not much of a fish fan it's alright cos it's part fish, mostly potato so not too fishy yum.

300g fish (red cod I use cos it's the cheapest here, heh)
500g potatos
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp tumeric
1 cup fresh coriander.
Sweet chilli sauce.

Boil and mash the potatos. Cook the fish for about 4minutes (or a bit more until it's cooked). Mix fish, potato, cumin, tumeric and most of the coriander (leave aside some for garnish ) together and roll into balls and flatten. Fry in oil. I've found I'm not too flash at keeping them in patty forma nd need to be vigilant they dont fall to pieces though I suspect it's just cos I get impatient and try to flip them before they're ready . Mum suggests an egg as a binding agent if they don't stick well bu I'm gonna try for the patience front.

Enjoy!

ooooh sounds nice, do let us know how it is!!!

I've been doing a lot of homemade food recently. From chicken & veg soup, to pear crumble, toad in the hole (sausages in battr - VERY easy and cheap!), chickpea burgers.

I've been making lots of sushi lately

Amendment to the thai fish cakes - powder with flour or breadcrumbs to help with the sticking and fry in a fair bit of oil.

Avocado ice cream:
3-5 avocados to taste
1 tin of sweetened condensed milk.
Blend together (I just used a fork to squish the avacado and mix it through the milk). It loses some sweetness in the freezing so if it's a lot sweeter than you're happy with before frozen it'll be fine after. I used 4 avocados but I reckon it was too many. Maybe 3 would be better... Freeze overnight.

Option 2
Milk
Brown Sugar
3-5 avocados.
Mix together to taste. Freeze overnight. Remember it should be a fair bit sweeter than you like while unfrozen.

I'm not sure about option 2 but the condensed milk comes out rock hard so you'll probably need to stand it in warm water or microwave it for 30 seconds before hacking into it with a chainsaw or whatevo .

Also...mmmmm sushi *drool*

:lol:hey thats funny that u were talking nout tacos i happend to be cooking one breakast taco when i was reading it lol:lol:
