    I make good food that's simple. Made some beef stroganoff and some burgers for friends who were down for a wedding recently, and they were surprised I cooked as well as I did, so there's that.
    Boy am I an unfunny ass.

    Or as James May, Richard Hammond and Jeremy Clarkson on Top Gear put it, Mexican food looks like refried sick.

    I'm a pretty solid cook it has to be said. I just hate having to cook that being said I like eating well so that means I'll regulary cook fresh fish/meat/poultry and veg. I only really eat one proper meal a day so having something good is nice. I guess my main cooking skills lie in cooking mediteranian food because I like cooking pastas, fish, veg ect. However I also love cooking curries and the like too.

    I guess I cook decent enough since it's how I pay my bills, but it usually involves salads (I work garde manger station at work), though I do make soups too.

    As for cooking outside of work, my friends and family always enjoy my food. Baking is much more my forte though. I understand sweet flavours a lot better than savoury. That said, I am a lot harder on myself when I bake. It will usually turn out good. Example, I made banana chocolate marble bread the other day. It turned out delicious and moist but could have used a bit of salt, surprisingly the recipe did not call for salt (usually the recipes from this book are spot on).

    I can only cook eggs , but even those don't turn out right. I cooked an ET looking egg once. I'll see if I can find it xD

    I've improved somewhat over the last year and noticed I was losing a lot of weight by preparing more of my own food, so I hope to continue.

    So yeah, just.

    I can't make scrambled eggs. For some reason I either overcook them or undercook them. Never right on the money. Probably at the wrong temperature. Otherwise I've never met a dish that's beaten me, but I don't tend to come up with my own stuff. I just don't have a lot of time. Even so I make this blueberry stuff you'd your pants over.

    Not because it would give you worms.

    Wow, maybe your pants over was the wrong turn of phrase.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    I can throw a bunch of strange ingredients together but that does not make me a good cook.

    I'm not a good cook. I could be if I decided to cook. But I don't cook because I am lazy. However I just whipped up some bacon and eggs for tea before and they were smurfin delicious if I do say so myself.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
    Trying to catch me riding dirty.

    I know I'm a good cook.. because I love to eat, have tried different country's food.. fave recipe's are asian cuisine.. they really use freshest ingredients... and mostly they use raw food, that' makes it very healthy

    You can always learn!

    My sister never really knew how to cook until she moved out and now she's a wonderful cook!
