Do you cook similar stuff all the time? Or do you try a totally new dish from time to time? If so, how long would you try to cook a new dish?

hi wondericequeen, my dear freind,i love to cooking and cooking is my hobby too so i keep on looking for new and easy dishes. dishes which are liked by my family, matches there tastes , fast to cooki, healthy and are veg. i am a vegetarian and i dont cook any non veg dishes. now because i am a mother too of an eleven month oldies who is very very naughty and keep me on my toes, so i find less time to devote in kitchen. but then too when ever my hubby is there to hold her for some time try to make something cool for him. he like fried stuff and he also like mexican dishes. i have learnt many and keep on giving a try to one by one. if on anaverage i have to tell then now, i think once in a week i cook something totally new.

in the weekend, i try to cook different dishes, mostly from the internet, from blogs. if i like the new dish, i will cook it more than once. for exemple, i cooked pancakes from the first time, they were delicious but i missed a secret, they stick on the pan. i'm sure they have a lot of things that makes me fat but they were so so good.

But if you are not overindulging yourself with it, it can't be that fattening *smiles*.

i don't do the cooking in our household, my husband does. He is an excellent cook, and he loves it. Tonight we tried a new Asian seafood dish. it was a bit spicy, but it was good. He's going to make it again without so many spices. He makes a new dish atleast twice a week.

I rarely make some new dish because i dont get much time to cook due to my college timing. But whever i make i try to make a dish by my own, my own creation.that way i have done so many dishes just couldnt name them properly.But them come out really tasty too. in normal days i have to eat whatever i get in my tiffin which not much tasty though, but i have to adjust, i dont cook at home during weekdays but during holidays i do cook.

I get bored of making the same dishes all the time, so I am always trying new recipes. I usually go on Foodtv.com and search what I am in the mood for that night and choose from one of the recipes. Sometimes there good and sometimes they are terrible.lOL

a couple times a month, more often if we get new kinds of fruits or veggies to work with somehow...or have less to work with. I try to cook "similar" stuff in new ways, whenever I cook. _

Hello wondericequeen, Once a while, I will try to cook new dish for the family especially during weekends when I have more time to try new dishes. Most of the time, I will just rotate the menu for a week or two. I always cook a simple dish and prepare three dishes for a meal.

i hate to eat similar food daily .and i am fond of varieties in food. so i prefer new varieties by seeing in net. anything which is easy and simple i will prepare . generally weekly once ,i will prepare any new dish. i like to prepare new snacks daily but i am lazy . i will prepare new varieties of snacks weekly once.
