The First Time You Cooked?

The 1st Time You Cooked - What Was It Like?

Guess I'm not alone.  First time I cooked- it was boiled Yam everything was going smoothly until I forgot that my hand hadn't been thoroughly washed after peeling the yam. I touched my face with the hand! and it was a terrible day! I itched like what i don't know, anyway momsy had to apply palm oil on the spots that were swollen on my face- chei! it was an experience.

When i cooked soup, it was Ogbono soup- it was very tasty o. but i can still remember those lumps! I guess everyone in my house ignored the lumps and praised me,    What was it like the 1st time for you?

lol

i remember d first meal i made, i was 7yrs old then and my parents travelled
my kid brother (6)  and I wanted to suprise them with a well prepared meal when they get back
so we decided to cook yam and stew
OMG ,  it was a trrible experince
lol 
we actually prepared d stew well enough ( U wan try) , but after peeling the yam we just like Uju touched our skin!
holy Moses!
we itched like crazyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
we didnt even get to enjoy d meal bc we were both crying!
our parents were proud sha and that made it a bit better 

I burn it Fry it dry.     

  unfortunately twas beans

arghhhhhhhhhhhh na so so water water oh! 

the thing was full of stones, oil on one side,  beans on one side 

no be small thing! please what was it you cooked?

Well, it was eba, my dad tot me, and I had a hard time holding the stick.

 

you guys are really making me laff here. LOL

i can't believe am beta dan some people.

well here it goes.

i was in primary school and home alone because mum and dad travelled and my siblins were in boarding school.

i cooked one cup of rice(not even full cup) with a whole gino tin tomato.

gush was it bad.

i was practically eating jellof tin tomatoes instead of jellof rice. was so happy i was all alone. so next time i used little tin tomatoes and it was perfect. . . .well almost perfect

LOL

Can't remember either,

But i won't forget in a jiffy the first time i pounded yam for some visitors. Gosh, it was so Stretchy, i felt the yam was bad.  _{though, there were no lumps.}    I had to quickly pray over it,    that God should make it tasty in their mouth and there should be "No Complaint" 

It was later I knew that good yams get stretchy when pounded. Little me.  Guess i got it all wrong.

Each time i remember this act i laff at myself.

Count me as well.

The first went quite smoothly i was impressed (under the tutelage of a friend). My first experience with indomie was da bomb, until i sneezed when i was carrying the fry pan, the contents spilt on the floor. 

i was too angry to shout i went to bed. I mean, ALL THAT EFFORT TO EAT? (_{women you people dey try O!})

First time I remember cooking was making "Obe ata" for Rice. I cooked rice and then found out there was no more stew. My sis convinced me to make "Ata din din" since we were all hungry. Men, did I fry the crap out of the stew or what? Kept it on the frying pan forever, oil splattering everywhere, too much salt, but the stew was tasty as hell. Told my sis to use and unsalty mouth to eat it so that way there would be a balance in the meal.  And the meat,  ? Another story!

It was Pathetic,

I fried Egg for about 25mins thinking it'll take time to Cook ,  you get me?

It took our Neighbors to come in despite all the smoke and I will never forget that day. I must be around 13 years or so

Peace Out!

i was 10, my parents stayed out unexpectedly late and we were getting hungry so i decided to surprise them by making eba. Obviously i thought all i need to make it was moderately hot water.

I didnt notice the eba didnt look right until it started crumbling inside the soup, it tasted like soaked garri.

My parents ate it proudly!  of course those lazy brothers of mine complained forever.

that na real eba PTH, did you give it a name? 

aisha, what soup were you cooking with potash? Kukah or dry okra, or Iron Bean? good job my sister 

Lmao @ y'all

Actually my first meal ever was boiled yam and egg stew. That was excellent.

Now hear this;

My first main meal was jollof rice. Chai! You can't imagine 

After I perboiled the rice, I put the tomatoes inside the pot with oil and onions. Added water and then poured the rice inside. _{Fair enough, huh?}. I now added all the ingredients but didn't mix it at all . When the food was ready, _{Dear lawd!} me and my brother had to taste every part of the pot looking for tasty food. As in, some parts were white and tasteless and some parts were very red and too salty 

Man don learn sha 

i can't remember anything happened on that day
