Help me learn to cook dinner

<< < (7/10) > >>

tweetles:
Stirfry is the easiest thing and works out on a budget
Get your meat (some kind of steak - go for cheap if need be)
Cut into small pieces
Chuck in frying pan/wok with a bit of oil
Throw in a bunch of stirfry veges (or any other prepackaged veges - usually cheapest option)
Add soy sauce, garlic a bit of ginger and paprika.

Cook up some rice on the side and tada. food.

maybe this can help http://www.studentrecipes.com

Is a bonk anything like a donk? Am I supposed to put a donk in it/on it while I am cooking?

I put up a quick and cheap veg chili recipe in yon cooking thread.

Also garlic will last for awhile but it will start to sprout a few weeks after purchase (the core of the garlic will turn green and a stem will start to poke out of the end) and in my opinion at least it loses a lot of its flavor at that point. If you squeeze a clove and it's soft you can probably do with better garlic.

This is no reason not to put some effort into your meals. I mean, take that perspective and you could just make yourself pasta and a salad every night. It's really easy to make the meal a little bit better, often for cheaper, without putting that much more time into it. Making your own pasta sauce is a good example, or spending an extra 5 minutes to season your meat before putting it in. Chili, however, you totally don't actually need to simmer for 8 hours, you're right.

Unless, you know, you want it to be good.

Make some tacos. They're really easy and equally tasty.
