elusivek1 How do you feel about cooking?
I enjoy cooking, whenever i have the chance to do so. I just don't like the washing... so usually I cook very carefully. If I am cooking 1 dish only, I try to only soil a maximum 2 dishes and the pan/container used for cooking.
2 How often do you cook a meal (from mostly fresh ingredients, not something ready-assembled that you just heat)?
Very rare! I only get to "properly cook" when my parents are on holiday in the Summer, and I usually only have time to cook on Saturday mornings.
3 How many people do you usually cook for, when you cook?
Just myself. I'd be happy to set a rotation with my Sis, but her job is usually unpredictable, and sometimes I can go till 9pm and still not have dinner because of waiting for her to get home. So even when parents are away, we each deal with our own dinners.
4 Do you have a favourite recipe book or chef?
I don't have a favorite recipe book nor chef. I watch some videos here and there (Tastemade) but otherwise, I don't follow a particular chef. I know of Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver (and there's a woman that now I do not recall her name).
5 Kitchen tools: use the fewest possible or gadgets are your friend?
Use the fewest possible. Only because I hate washing them afterwards! My favorite thing to cook is a fish fillet and assorted veggies baked in a tin foil.... so I can simply eat from the tinfoil and then throw everything out with minimal washing. There's a level of dedication with trying to avoid washing, LOL

Date: 2020-03-08 00:42 (UTC)When the parents are away, we either dine out or order in.... but I’ll probably start another thing this year... when I have lunch at work, the order is usually huge and I can’t finish it. I may just start to pack up the rest and bring that home for dinner. But then my Sis will be on her own. We’ll see what happens this year (IF my parents get to travel)
