Can't resist that jibe... Anyway, there are a few cooking shows on Ch 8 and Ch U, especially the one featuring teams competing to whip up 3 dishes and 1 soup. Cook more often and you can do away with the recipe books. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackwind Neutral Newbie December 29, 2010 Author Share December 29, 2010 I cook most of my meals, and if your ingredients r fresh n of gd quality, the only things u need r salt n pepper. i am horrible when it comes to tasting... i can never tell the difference between good food and the bad ones e.g. i will never be able to tell the difference between the "famous mee pok or nasi lemak" and the normal ones. so i think your method will actually work perfectly for me any simple recipes to share....

Well, kind of in the same boat as you. You're cooking for just yourself? A bit tougher, like that. But, anyway, boil daikons, potatoes, carrots and onions until desired softness (generally, the longest-to-shortest-time-to-cook is like this: daikons->carrots = Potatoes > onions). Add your meat of choice. Then, either add in japanese curry or tomato based spaghetti sauce, then stew some more. Can easily make eanough for 4 meals in one go. Also, just pasta + sausages. Even simpler. Meat is generally easy to cook. It's the veggies that'll give you problem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skunk Clutched December 29, 2010 Share December 29, 2010 What raw ingredients u want to cook? Tell me n I'll provide a recipe. But if u want simple, healthy meals, gotta wean your taste buds off hawker food, which is heavily laden with MSG n sugar. Once u can do that, u will never look back again... Outside food is basically crap. I'll give u tips on choosing quality produce as well. Heh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
