I dunno what else to do. What are easy recipes that I can make? I'm getting tired of eating the same thing

Why isn't there a sticky for this shit that can answer all my questions?

Because nothing about food is universal. We have no way of answering your question without a thorough understanding of your cultural background, local ingredient availability, tastes and preferences, and so on.

Stews, cold salads, warm salads, roasting, braising, soups, cutlets, pasta bakes (ziti, lasagna etc etc etc) baking....the world is your oyster and Google University is FREE.

Stop being a lazy faggot. If you can add 2+2, you can cook a "complicated" meal.

everything is available but i just want something that is easy to make and doesn't take a lot of time

>>8982128
Maybe because I feel overwhelmed at all the recipes and I don't know what to choose based

Just google shit you want to eat. Unless it's tamales or a fucking soufle you basicallys just mix shit together and warm it up.

>>8982149
A fucking soufle is still pretty much mixing shit together then heating it up

Chinese style braised meat, curry, pasta sauce, and soup stock for me all follow similar procedure. I don't really use recipes anymore, I just go with "What are in those things" and experimentation + experience.

That said I really should write them down, especially for curry, since slight changes swings curry's flavor around a lot.

Learn to make pizza so you can put whatever you want on it.

>Learn to make pizza
does anyone else think pizza is a beginner dish that's hard to screw up granted you're not the one making the cheese?

Homemade pizza is usually trash unless you spend $$$ on a wood fired pizza oven

It's supposed to be complicated which is the only reason I said that. I have no idea what goes into it. The point is, unless it's overly complicated, cooking ain't shit.

I usually go to the frozen food section of my local market, look at entrees, find something that looks tasty, Google a recipe, and get the ingredients at the store.

Though once you start cooking more it becomes simpler to plan what you're gonna make before you leave the house

why not look at frozen food online and then prepare the ingredients?

You say that, but I've made a few pizzas in cast iron pan that were pretty amazeballs.

Cook for a few minutes of low medium heat until crust is browning, put under broiler for ~10 minutes or something until cheese is melted thoroughly and starting to char

Wrong
We could make a sticky

>> No.8984035

>>8982713
In that case I'd rather just look at real food online

Which I do, often. This is more for when I'm at the store, not sure what to eat, and have time to make a meal.

Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Mexican Grilled Cheese (use tortilla)
You can also easily amplify any meats but cutting them, and putting them in a tortilla with cheese, turns a basic dish into an exotic treat
