If you're just starting out on your cooking journey, you're probably in need of some pointers.
It's very tempting to get all CHEF and try the most impressive thing you can find, but honestly, you're better off going back to basics.
Find a recipe book full of tasty things you really want to make, then try some of the simpler recipes before moving on to cooking a full three-course dinner.
Also, remember to leave yourself plenty of time when you're making something new, no-one likes a stress-head in the kitchen and you'll probably put yourself off cooking for life.
