I never tried cooking till i complete my 10th standard. During 10th std holidays i tried cooking simple items like noodles, chilli idlies, masala bread etc without the help of my mom. Yes it doesn't taste good, it was so spicy, so bitter and everyone in my home stared and cursed at me while eating that and my mom gave me the punishment to eat all the things i had prepared without remains. From that day i never tried cooking. Do u hav any funny experiences lik this friends?

When I turned 27 I had invited some friends over. I love Indian food, so I wanted to cook an Indian dish for my friends. I was not very good at cooking, and I didn't have any experience, but I still decided to cook the dish myself instead of asking for help.
I went out and bought all the right ingredients, and then I was ready to start. The dish smelled kind of funny, but I thought that it was okay. I wanted to taste the dish, before I put it on the table and I will never forget how horrible it tasted. It was very, very spicy, I usually like spicy food, but my dish wasn't spicy in a normal way, it was so spicy that it was completely impossible to eat it. I finally decided to ask my ex for advice, and he tried to save the dish by adding some other ingredients, but it was useless. No matter what we did, the dish still tasted awful, and we had to order a pizza for dinner

I love to cook. It relaxes me every time I do it. I like if it tastes a little sweet and spicy. One time, I think that I have overdone it. I made it a lot sweeter that what it should normally taste. In the end, no one gets to eat it. They think they are already having dessert instead of the main course.

i am cooking from my childhood :) when i and my sister left at home we were taking our mom cooking book and trying to make something. of course kids really like everything with sugar or nice sweet :) so we never making anything with meat. i can not remember what was the first dish. maybe biscuits maybe cace or pancakes. but i learn everytime from my mistakes and when cooking my sister was tasting :) we were a good team!
oh i miss my childhood. i never cook with my mother, actually i mean she never helped me, because i like to cook by myself and if i do not know something, i call by phone my mom and ask or check in the internet.
