I'm ok at it. No expert but could cook up something you'd like. What about you?

I enjoy cooking. Especially love making my own pasta sauce.

Much better than the pre made ones!

Been lazy with cooking recenty but will get back into it

I have been living on pasta sauce. All home made. yum.

Love cooking - used to do it for a living so I'm quite good at it I think? Although I'm not really into baking/pastry stuff as I don't have a particular taste for cakes/puddings.

ok, lets cook an amazing dinner, what would you like as a starter?

so much better when you make it yourself. Will def be doing it this week

Baked Goats cheese served with rocket and balsamic vinegar

consider it done. Next course?

Im not bad, though currently in a rut with my repertoire. I'd really love to go on a residential cookery course to brush up.... but I'm afraid to do it because I'd be scared of getting the level wrong. They're quite expensive - too expensive to turn up only to find they're teaching something basic like making a bechamel... or conversely, teaching something really gourmet and complicated.

i'm rubbish. i can cook average normal meals like roasts, slow cooker stuff and fry up breakfast. i made a load of veggie pasties and they were ok. every single one was different but they are a decent snack. im trying to do jamie olivers 15 minute meals and i think ive made a few that are ok. my husband loves the bashed chicken in jamies book. my problem is, i always think ive done it wrong. doh. i brought a load of spices back from india. now im struggling to get the balance right and it seriously isnt easy. but its fun trying.

i'm with you there welsh lad

A nice big juicy rump steak with some peppercorn sauce and triple cooked chips

I just posted about this on another thread and can't find it!
I retired in 2008 but OH had to continue. I started cooking and now do most of it.
I'll try my hand at anything.
The first thing I did with a pal back then was a LA ten week evening cookery course - North Indian cuisine.
Now I just stick to one basic recipe and tweak it as OH can't do too much heat.
Wednesday I'm off to a cookery school morning followed by 3 course lunch and we've booked B&B.
Welsh lad and katy - go do it.
Talk to them first and go in at a challenging level.
There'll be nothing worse than finding you're dumbing down.
I did an "intermediate" photography class to find there were five newbies and we pandered to them.
I'd rather be just out of my depth and learn one really challenging dish.

I love it. I'm no commercial chef, but i can make nice tasting food from scratch without a recipe. I just dont do restaurant presentation.

I think I'm ok. Everyone who eats my food loves it. I put in lot of attention to detail. I take a long time though, and I need to practise at getting everything ready at the same time. I really love cooking though.

no no no! that's mains, it has to be
be a fish dish..

this.

i generally make it up as i go along and i`m particularly good at empty cupboard cookery.

I'm ok. My food tastes good, not restaurant quality but it's not terrible. My enthusiam makes up for lack of skills.

I love cooking no one is aloud in my kitchen when I'm cooking, Years ago I went to night school to learn basic french and italian cooking, I went with a friend and it was great fun really enjoyed it

i like it. lol what do you cook?
i make a brill chilli bean soup from not very much. ive got lots of dried beans which i cook and freeze. add anything thats hanging around to the beans and yummy soup appears.

I love cooking, I enjoy experimenting but I love reading cook books and menus. I'm a bit obsessed with menus actually, sometimes I sit and browse restaurants websites just reading menus.

..ha! ha! I do that too

If I am in the right frame of mind I really enjoy cooking, so then I will cook loads of stuff and freeze it for the days when I can't be bothered.

I'm extremely good at cooking the limited number of dishes I know (including some very complicated Indian curries from scratch). However, I need to expand my repertoire.

I also pick up new recipes very quickly.

However, I just don't enjoy cooking at all. I would rather tidy, do the laundry, iron...almost anything else.

I love cooking. I would rate myself as good in cooking. My friends and family like my cooking. But i tend to make most of my dishes spicier than i wish. So i still have to learn a lot. I'm good at cooking south indian dishes,would like to explore and experiment other country cuisines. I like chinese,always try to make at home,but would end up with average or poor results. Average at baking,Italian cuisines,Thai dishes.

Lol,you are not alone. I do browse the restaurant menus,blogs and love cooking shows.
