Hello everybody? I just wondering, what was the first food that I made by myself. I'm not really sure when I cooked by my self, may be at my 5th grade in elementary school. My first food that I made by my self was Instant Fried Noodle (Mie Goreng). It is quite easy to cook for me. Until now, fried noodle is one of my favorite food. How about you guys?

I probably fried up some corned beef or sardines the first time. These still prove to be my fave dishes morning, noon, or night. But just like you, I'm not really sure too. I know that I did not fry an egg, though - that's just way too complicated for me.

The first food I ever cooked by myself was pancakes. I made pancakes from scratch for a family of 5 when I was 7 years old. Mom supervised and explained things in the recipe that I didn't understand. She also showed me how and when to flip the pancakes. Other than that, it was all me. It was such a great feeling having everyone enjoy my cooking. Within a year, I was cooking something solo about once a week and helping mom as often as I could.

Well the first thing I learned how to cook was spagetti cause it is very simple to cook and hamberger meat which we use in the meat sauce for the spagetti is like the easiest meat to cook.

I learned to cook spaghetti in senior hing school. Yes it is quite easy but not very common in my country. I'm Asian actually, so we prefer noodle than spaghetti. Thanks for your response renemouche! Have a good day!

Well, first food I cooked has been rice to do a rice salade :) it was very simple :D I remember it was in summer and my mother told me to recreate something easy I would prepare by myself (she was watching me from the other room :D). Because of the summer heat I decided to do something cold ;) I just had to boil rice :D i added parmesan, wurstel, carrots, mushrooms and i can't remember what :D it was a messy salade :D

I think the very first food i cook was an egg. My parents said that you can very go wrong cooking that unless you burn it. After learning to cook the first egg, I basically could cook everything and bake everything. I find that cooking is relaxing and easy to do.
