    Made home-made pizza on Sunday. Made the base, sauce and topping all myself. Tates a heck of a lot better than what you can buy.

    I can also make american-style pancakes from scratch. Though my curries are terrible. Need more practise on those.

        I have gone for the Delia option though I am getting close to the Rhodes categary. Some dishes I am way beyond that.
        Italian is a doddle though I have not perfected a carbonara yet.
        I can do Thai and Indian from scratch. No packets of anything. Raw spices and fresh ingredients. I do use cook in sauces for ease though. If I have the time and the inclination I like to cook.
        I tend to struggle with chinese sauces and find jars or packets are up to it.
        Not too good at cakes but my mums recipe for meringues and eclairs are easy enough and turns out exceptional food.
        I am not qualified to give the above advice!

        Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

            Chef, are you merely adopting the persona or do you really cook?

            Is it true that one can cook a whole salmon, to perfection, in a dishwasher?

            You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

              I hate cooking.

              I can cook a few complicated things if I set my mind to it but I have no consistancy simply as I get bored.....

                I fear a conspiracy against that nice Jamie Oliver bloke.

                  I long for the day when he will cut his enormously-engorged tongue out, pan fry it, then serve it up on a bed of rocket with a drizzle of Balsamic.

                  Don't get me started on Delia!

                    i cook and cook fairly well, im not a trained chef but it could be a plan B if need be i think.

                    absolutely no idea about salmon in a dishwasher, what a strange question, although thinking about it I'd hazzard a guess and say yes it possible (assuming no detergent is used )
