Taking another shot at cooking

Sunday 10 January 2016


I am possibly the laziest and worst cook ever! If it was possible to live off Chinese takeaway, I definitely would! Unfortunately for me, I would end up very unhealthy and I know that being able to cook is an important life skill. This year, I am making it one of my goals to learn the art of cooking.

As you can see, I made some Oreo cupcakes. These actually tasted alright and after giving them to my friends to sample, I got the thumbs up which was reassuring - so, I've got one recipe under my belt! I do, however, want to learn how to use a piping bag properly instead of just using a spatular to ice the cakes! As well as sweet treats, I want to expand my knowledge of savoury dishes! Today, the day of upload, I am going to be making some Yorkshire puddings from scratch. To some, this may sound really simple but I am taking baby steps to enable that I master the easy dishes. I think that every week, I would like to build up my skills so by the end of the year I can cook a whole roast dinner (for Christmas day). For me, learning able to cook will mean that I will become more independent and be healthier - besides the occasional Chinese! 

Can you cook and do you enjoy it? If you have any recipes that you think I should try, please leave them down below - I'd love some inspiration!
