[Chris]

Boiled eggs, toast and Milo. And that's for dinner! :wink: :D

[Ropy]

I'm not that much of a cook but unlike some of you guys, I can cook to survive (not talking about rice and peas and chicken here). It's good to know that I'm not the only youth around that can't cook.[/i]

[W.I.L.L.Y]

[Greatis]

Well as for me I am a cook. I don't know if I'm good but my favourite dish is escovitched fish with creamed mash potatoes.

[rans]

I can fry an egg!!! :D .. does that count as cooking?

[Shortie]

I can cook anything that takes less that half hour.

Guys u really should learn to cook, a man who can't cook can be a pain especially if he hates doing dishes.

[Nastro]

I have ambition but I can wash plate.

[Chris]

Washing plates are my speciality :wink: After all, if my wife is the only cook then washing plates is my contribution to the meals.

[kilaj1]

can cook but hate to wash dishes :evil:

[Greatis]

can cook but hate to wash dishes :evil:

don't well all. Not the can cook part but the wash dishes. :roll:

[Nastro]

Ok.. Its official....Man must not cook but wash Plate. Otherwise he has emasculated himself and is a sissy. :lol:

(man am I gonna get in trouble for that one.)

[F.L.E.X]

I have acquired a love for cooking these days. . Whenever my girl cooks I try to be in the kitchen with her. I'll make the salad or make the drink. She's not too hot on my cooking so she'd hardly allow me to cook the chicken or anything like that. If needs be I can definitely hold it down. It might not be as good as hers but it will stop a gap.

If she is away I find I could eat macaroni and cheese everyday. Give me any kind of Pasta and I will be happy :D

OK.. Its official....Man must not cook but wash Plate. Otherwise he has emasculated himself and is a sissy.
Nastro you just being cheeky! :D

[kilaj1]

bowy ...when will the day come for the jamaican men...that it will be afordable to us a dishwasher :( :P .

to cook was pretty much a requirement to me...in case the lady friend I got cant... =P~

[Shortie]

Chris more men should think like you :)

I can't bash u guys too much for not knowing how to cook,simply because I can't iron :lol: If i ever decide to live with a man he will have to do the ironing and i will cook :D

[Nastro]

Ironing my specialty

[Greatis]

mi did tink seh only few man coulda cook but di poll seem fi a prove I wrong.

[NirVana]

The question shouldn't be if you "can" cook, but more "Has anyone died or gotten seriously ill (including yourself) after consuming something you have "prepared" UN-SUPERVISED. :?"

[NirVana]

Ok.. Its official....Man must not cook but wash Plate. Otherwise he has emasculated himself and is a sissy. :lol:

[Nastro]

Ok... what do you cook best Destiny?

[Xenocrates]

I don't know about you fellas, but in this day and age where women are generally almost as self-sufficient as most men, I wouldn't always want to leave the cooking up to her. If she is upset with you or has to temporarily leave the country, you still won't go to bed hungry and you don't have to spend extra cash to feed yourself.

I'm no chef, but there's very little that the traditional woman can do in the kitchen (or the general household for that matter) that I lack the competence to do. There is such a thing as an ill trained woman, and there's lots of them in Kingston. That's why in my family, there's no such thing as a male that can't cook.

With that said, every man should learn how to cook. Enroll in a class if you have to. Watch your mothers intently if you have to when she is preparing the Sunday dinner (I do). You owe it to yourselves. Women are making us redundant in the workplace. Are you going to allow them to make you redundant @ home as well?

Think about that for a second. :eusa_snoo

[Arch_Angel]

As many of us say after Xeno makes a post "A true Xeno".

But fi real, I can't believe sey so many of the guys here can't cook.
I can cook. And would love to learn how to be better at it. I have cooked for my family and have gotten comments like "You should open your own KFC."

I have even taken my girlfriend out for a picnic, and guess who cooked the food? I did. And she loved it. She knows how to cook and for her to compliment my cooking, means I'm not too bad.

My father cooks regularly for his family. And he is a VP at one of our local banks. You don't see that very often.

Cooking is an art. And if I could make and eat a gourmet meal each day, no more greasy, fatty, unhealthy, over priced, fast food for me.

[kid fuzz]

well i only can really cook breakfast..... and a lot of sub sandwiches i can deal wid.

[Skillachi]

I dont like wen Xeno Post... u just cant help agreeing with him in some way. Sorta takes the fun out of posting doesnt it. From now on everything xeno says i agree with

[Chris]

...I have even taken my girlfriend out for a picnic, and guess who cooked the food? I did. And she loved it. She knows how to cook and for her to compliment my cooking, means I'm not too bad....

They say that love is blind, but in your case it's probably tasteless :icon_lol:

[Xenocrates]

I think I need to stop posting...

[rreky]

Xeno has a very good point. But I know that when you men get into relationships with women who can cook y'all refuse to at least treat her to some of your simple, yet tasteful, cullinary skills. So what if it's only corned beef? Sometimes we need a break from the fireside too!

[Chris]

Good point rreky, they need a break sometimes.

[Skillachi]

No dont stop posting Xeno, Just put as your signature Skillachi agrees with everything ive just said

[rreky]

Definition of Outdoor Barbecuing It's the only type of cooking a "real" man will do:

When a man volunteers to do such cooking, the following chain of events is put into motion.

(1) The woman goes to the store.
(2) The woman fixes the salad, vegetables, and dessert.
(3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils, and takes it to the man, who is lounging beside the grill, drinking a beer.
(4) The man places the meat on the grill.
(5) The woman goes inside to set the table and check the vegetables.
(6) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning.
(7) The man takes the meat off the grill and hands it to the woman.
(8) The woman prepares the plates and brings them to the table.
(9) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.
(10) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed "her night off."

And, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women.

[Chris]

No wonder I'm always so tired after a BBQ :icon_lol:

[Nastro]

I learnt how to toast a slice of bread this morning :D

[Ensiki]

Nas u know seh u too lie u nuh tell mi di oder day seh u can cook?

[Ensiki]

the only thing I don't like to cook is FISH! I love it but it is always breaking up when I steam it.

[AngelsKiss]

I never did cook much when I was in Jamaica and didn't even really knew how to that well. Now I enjoy preparing different dishes and I like to experiment with recipes. My favourites dishes are of course Jamaican, love just about all kinds Chinese food, some Japanese, Italian, Mexican. I also like some Indian and Greek dishes, etc.

[Cocoa]

Don't play wid me and mi kitchen. Food haffi eat. Everyone must eat too.. A woman mi name so mi mus know how fi cook...according to the women in my family.

[Greatis]

Ja butter you married yet :rolleyes:

[Cocoa]

Hmmm.....married ha? A lady never tells ;) You'll just know.

[Chris]

Ja butter you married yet :rolleyes:

Mind yourself Greatis, some women don't want a man who can't cook ;)

[BlackCryptoKnight]

Cooking isn't that big a deal. Just follow the instructions in the recipe.

[Greatis]

@ BCK following intructions are not always easy... ;)

@ Chris let me try my luck nuh :)

[Cocoa]

let me try my luck
Try you luck noh!

[Greatis]

Try you luck noh!

I am always up for a challenge and this one sure ain't gonna pass me by
:rolleyes:

[Cocoa]

[SCOTCHBONNET]

This Is Scotchbonnet I Can Cook. I'm Certified

[Greatis]

Certified what Scotchbonnet :rolleyes: :eusa_sick

[Chicokid]

Well I'm more interested in baking than cooking. I love to make cakes and buns especially....even pizzas :D

Cooking well I can do Toast, pasta..well simple stuff. :)

I don't recommend microwave prepared food. You see when you cook, you do that with LOVE. Time and dedication over a hot stove to show someone you love and appreiate them. Microwaves are just a quick way out of this plus the love in the food is spoiled. :eusa_snoo

[tallyouth]

cant too cook still, fishing to find out how though
ironically i love the taste of a good bikkle inna iman mouth still zimi lol :icon_lol:

[Drew]

i'm a great cook. if you want proof, check out the gleaner archives for earlier this year, and/or creative cooking. :icon_mrgr

[Arch_Angel]

Yeah? Then post a recipe for the rest of us nu! Make it something easy we can do, because as you can see, most of these people can't even cook egg.

[Drew]

lol, cooking isn't hard. just fling somethings in a frying pan and wait for it to turn colour. :icon_mrgr

ok A_A, what kinda recipe you want??

[Arch_Angel]

Something on the beginners level. Something that won't take rocket science to make. :D
But some of these guys really don't know how to cook an egg, so even that would be good.

[Greatis]

yeah yeah Drew give us something fi try. Hope the pot bottom don't drop out this time :eusa_shif

[Cocoa]

lol, cooking isn't hard. just fling somethings in a frying pan and wait for it to turn colour.

If that was your definition of cooking, remind mi not to eat at yu yard. LOL

[Drew]

lol. no problem. :icon_mrgr

[AngelsKiss]

lol, cooking isn't hard. just fling somethings in a frying pan and wait for it to turn colour. :icon_mrgr

ok A_A, what kinda recipe you want??

LOL, thats like saying you bought one of those TV dinners and stuck it in the microwave:)

[Drew]

i was reading the past posts in this thread. man you guys are funny. i don't mind doing the dishes, i used them when cooking, so i'm gonna clean them. what i can't do is iron.

i learned how to cook by doing 2 culinary courses last year. then there was my mom and my grandmother who sealed the deal for me. guys let me tell you this. learn to cook, it will greatly enhance your social life with the ladies. trust me on that, i'm talking from first hand experience. women love their bellies more than men.

now i'm getting alot of requests to prepare meals for people, and the ladies show alot more interest in me. you can also learn alot from cooking in other areas of your daily life, trust me on that.

ps. does anyone know creative cooking's web-site. i'm trying to find the recipe which i prepared for them.

[Arch_Angel]

I have Grace Foods website bookmarked: http://www.gracefoods.com/default.asp

[Drew]

thanks A_A.

ok people, this (http://www.gracefoods.com/gfrecipe/recipes.asp?FromPage=EN&rcpNum=2278) is what i made on creative cooking. its a very healthy and beautiful dish because of the vegetables. please remember that its more on the vegetarian side.
