Cooking for women is always a good idea. Start simple. Use recipes, and follow them closely! You will make mistakes. Some will be tragic. Cook food you're comfortable with. I saw one of your other posts mentioned learning cooking vernacular. That's true. Start with the basics. Know terms like braising, boiling, frying, sauteing, grilling, roasting, etc. Good cooking is a science and an art. You may want to use one of your friends as a guinea pig before you cook for your girlfriend. Good Luck!

Hi pratheep,
Learning how to cook is good because you can cook for yourself if there is nobody else around. But, cooking for you love one is more romantic. She will appreciate it even though your cooking is like ....
I also knew a few type of meals that I can prepare by myself. I learn it since I was very young and my ex girlfriends also teach me a few dishes. She expecting me to cook for her but it is only a dream now.
The best way to learn cooking (for me) is observe your mothers cooking. Learn how she prepare all the ingredients. After that try to cook it. Practice make perfect. You can also surf the menu from internet. Look for meals that mean special for her.
Good luck.

I think that's sweet. But its really good if you know what kind of food she likes so it would be easy for you to cook the kind of food that she would want to eat. You can surprise her with other cooking later on when you have mastered her taste already.

It is very admiral that you want to cook for your girlfriend. Start by learning all the cooking terms and use simple recipes with no more than 5 ingredients to get familiar with how they should taste. Find a cooking show that deals with simple recipes to watch and learn from. Chose a few recipes and stick with them until your satisfied that you can cook them well.
