Can you cook? ??

Now that you mention it I should probably learn how to cook since I'm home every day anyway.

I can make some great entrées and deserts I learned from watching Masterchef Australia but I can't make full courses.
 
Wats an easy belgian dish b?

Preferably with meat?

And can u describe belgian cuisine. .......
 
MAN I've been wanting to get into making some bomb Chorizo breakfasts lately.

Haven't cooked with it before.. any latinos wanna tell me if there's anything I should know about cooking it? Seems pretty straight forward. :lol:

Maybe it's because I'm not extremely into cooking but I'm struggling to think of a real Belgian dish. We're not really our own cuisine, we take a lot of influence from the surrounding countries, mainly France. Here's some examples I could think of that are traditional Belgian dishes:

Gentse Waterzooi, or simply waterzooi. Idk what to call it in English. Its literal translation would be Ghent water mess. 
It's a sort of stew that originated in Ghent.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waterzooi
There's various recipes for it. It's commonly prepared with fish but chicken is becoming increasingly popular too.

Paling in't groen (Eel in da green) is another original and popular dish.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paling_in_'t_groen

Rabbit a la gueuze is also a popular Belgian dish.

I'll ask my mom for some more Belgian dishes and report back later

Edit:

Moules-frites (mussels & fries) is another essential Belgian dish. When it's mussel season, everyone is trying to get the best mussels to prepare a moules-frites dish. You have to be fast because the biggest and best mussels will get snagged as soon as they're on the market. There's various ways to prepare them, this wiki article contains some of the most common ones.

Here's a great Belgian desert that I'm personally a big fan of. It's called "Vlaai"

And the real Belgian waffles of course

I'm black but i know how to cook it well. Basically just brown it and make sure that it's not undecooked. The red coloring can confuse you on whether its done enough or not. The juice that chorizo sausage produces makes for good flavoring. One of my favorite snacks is mixing Chorizo with some beef ramen noodles. It may be on that prison cuisine tip but man is it good
 
I'm just getting in to cooking since living the bachelor life, well me and my son. Just purchased me some new pots and pans this week.

pretty much
treat it like you would ground beef/turkey...brown it (some like it crisy).
no need to season with salt
mix with scrambled eggs


every now and then i make chorizo lettuce wraps for dinner. dice up some tomato, with some cabbage, and a nice salsa :smokin

Today's project: bacon-wrapped scallops in a sauce consisting of butter, garlic, shallots, Westbrook Gose (a sour German wheat beer with coriander and salt), and a dash of apple cider vinegar:
 
I don't mind cooking, but I usually get off work after 8-9 and my wife gets home at 415 so she usually cooks during week. I also HATE cleaning up when I cook :lol:

I love to grill though

One of my favorite things to cook now are roasts. Next up is a brisket. I've baked my roasts so using a grill at a certain temp will be a task
 
Nope not at all :smh: My "cooking" skills are limited to frozen pizza,just much easier to go out.
 
yeah as soon as i moved out my mommas house, which was like 6 months ago, i cook.
i care about what i put in my body to a certain extent. I try to cook as much as possible.
 
I think it would behoove everyone to know how to make a solid steak. Nothing better than impressing a date with an amazing, restaurant-quality steak dinner while saving a few bucks in the process. I honestly refuse to eat steak now unless it's from a very reputable restaurant.

My girl won't finish her steaks when she goes out now, saying how mine is always better.

The cuts they use in regular restaurants aren't great, and then you have the chefs rushing to make it or don't make it to the correct wellness. She gets hers medium-well and they always make it well-done. :rofl: I always tell her that's what she gets for eating steak more than Medium.
