what's your worst cooking blunder? mine occurred when i was a little boy still growing (i think i was about 10yrs old at the time). my mum asked me to cook some rice for the family since everyone was going to be away from home that afternoon except me. well, it was first attempt at cooking so here was what i did, i fetched exactly about the quantity that i could finish (when cooked) and put it in a pot. i also repeated the same for every member of the family (four in all). you can imagine what happened when i started cooking. then rice swelled and over filled the pot! i got a bigger pot and continued. in the end, the food was so much it could have fed the family for three days. God!, i was so embarrassed i couldn't tell anyone what happened as i had 'taken care' of the mess before anyone arrived back home. don't ask: i threw away the excess rice!

~ROTFLMAO Hilarious!! I've had so many blunders cooking African Food,am going to need to choose which deserves the "Worse"

@ Topic

U really don't want to know, . . . like seriously where do i start from, too much salt,

too much pepper, too much oil, under

cooked, over cooked, . . . . . .Phewwwww, this could take all day , . . . .

the good thing about it though is that we learn

from our mistakes which makes us better cooks, so yeah thank God for Cooking blunders,

~LMAO why am i comforted by your admissions? At least its Only w/ African foods from back home i have a problem with!!

~If you ask me,Way TooOo much time spent cooking those food,i'd rather the grill/oven/microwave

~Still mastering the "Art Of Avoiding Blunders"- I suppose the frequency of cooking certain foods makes for learning how Not to do it,but its a rarity for me especially after a blunder!! I just dont bother or when i do try again,its been ages!!

@canyon
if you still have that pressure cooker,you r best off getting rid of it as its a health and safety hazard,no one buys that type anymore as its been known to kill a few people,that same thing that happened to you killed my family friend's housemaid in nigeria

Cayon:

are you serious about this b/c you are scaring me. Anyway, i use it once in a yellow-moon. Guess i have to use my slow cooker more often
