For YEARS and years I told myself that I either couldn't, or wouldn't, cook ... largely because by the time I thought of doing it, I was already hungry, so using the microwave was always so much easier and quicker ...
... but then I started dating a chef, and I RAPIDLY learned my mistakes ... so now, whilst I can only cook the dishes that he's shown me, my repetoire does go up to kinda imitation-chef standard :-
1) Smoked Salmon 'n Spinach Pasta (ask my bro Wouldlikemuscle what he thinks of that);
2) Corned Beef Hash;
3) Paella;
4) Lasagne;
5) Bangers 'n Mash;
6) Cottage Pie; and
7) Chicken Stir-fry (MARINATED Chicken).
I can also do a large number of desserts that I've picked up (some from my b/f, some from books) - things like :-
Lemon Drizzle Cake, Carrot Cake, Cookies, Shortbread, Florida Summer Fruit Cups, Fairy Cakes, Rice Krispie Cakes, stuff like that ...
... and yeah, now I LOOOOOOVE to cook mile:.
