Earlier cooking was the prerogative of women only although some of the best chefs across the world are men. But now we see more and more men cooking at least once in a while.....I feel that every human being regardless of the gender should be able to cook , what do yoou say ?
Do you all cook ? what are your favorite dishes and the ones that you are good at dishing out ?

If this question was asked to me couple of years back, I would have said no. However, time has taught me to cook. And yes, from my personal experience I agree with you that all of us should know to cook. It's of great help in times of needs as well as it's an art which if mastered will help us to satisfy our's as well as others taste buds tantrums.
I love to eat spicy foods and the ones which I cook I try my best to spice them all.

Cooking can be an interesting and satisfying hobby besides being a very practical one too....The more you cook the more you become happy with what you are doing and will want to experiment some more :)

Unfortunately this very essential and necessity field i could not reach. Yes, The best cooks even from the mythological days were men. Nala and Bheema are well known cooks.
I like Roti and Dal.

One thing I have discovered about cooking is that if done with heart will yield great result and if cooking done just for sake of doing will turn out to be disaster.
I love to cook and experiment with different foods all the time. Although I like to eat spicy food I prefer making simple food daily, simple but tasty and try to keep its original flavors intact. I don't like to add too many spices and condiments while making any dish.
It is the same here although my family prefers meats and fish to be spicy when I make it into curries.But nowadays they prefer steaming which is far more healthier. I love spicy food but I try and balnce it out with raitha and bolied vegetables with just salt and pepper...

Yes Cooking is an art. Out of 64 varieties of shastras in Hinduismm, Paka Shastra is one.. Like any other art it has to be constantly experimented. The more one experiments, the more new avenues are opened.
I don't know cooking though I would like this. I can only make omlette and boil eggs.
You are fortunate. At least you can make an omelette and boil the eggs. I cannot make even Tea.
You can still learn ....Now with the tea bags making tea is the easiset job there is .. :)
It's not that I didn't try cooking. As you said in your early thread that cooking should be done with full heart. You are right. That putting the heart in cooking is very much absent. I put oil instead of water.

I can make tea and coffee also. This is nothing but boiling the tea leaves and coffee. Moreover now we have also tea bags that have only to be dipped in hot water as long as you get desired color.

The way in which Usha and you are encouraging me, I feel like plunging in to action of cooking from tomorrow itself.

Cooking and Gardening in my opinion have many similarities. When a dish turns out good we feel very happy and on top of the world similarly when a plant thrives under our care and begins to bloom we get the same pleasure ...

True. The satisfaction derived out seeing our efforts taking the form is altogether is different. And this trait applies to all creative arts. Both cooking and gardening are creative arts.
When I was at school we had a cookery class once a week and this was something we really looked forward to and when I told this to my children, they were feeling bad that they dint have since none of the schools have cookery classes now... So I would ask them to cook at home whatever they wanted and today I am glad I did that since they are all able to take care of themselves without having to depend on outside takeaway food....
During holidays, I love to cook breakfast, and some times I experiment with some, for me cooking is difficult, and it needs a great sense and care to prepare nice dishes.
It is best to start with some easy to prepare simple dishes where you cannot go wrong and then try others.....Omlettes, french toast,Sandwiches are all easy to prepare and also fill you up. Most importantly when a person is living alone it saves him or her from totally depnding on take aways and restaurants...

Knowing how to cook is of great help. It makes him sort of independent.
