Anyone got any good egg recipes? Finally cooking for myself full-time and this thread's been great.

Melt some cheese on top to increase the cholesterol levels. Remember to say "Pizzone!" when serving!

Thought I d update this thread. After moping around for a while after a breakup and eating a lot of crap, I decided recently that I would get my act together and cook for myself at least one meal from scratch a day. I live in an old building so my kitchen is very basic, what they call a ˜gyp (I don t know why but it s almost definitely racist). Just a one hob situation, no oven. For that reason I ve been cooking one-pot things, including a lot of Indian and Mexican stuff, with profuse apologies to both those cultures. Once you have the standard spices and herbs, I find that these (or rather my approximations of them) are the best on the low-effort/high-deliciousness coefficient. Alongside that, like every student ever, an army of pasta dishes. I think I m pretty good at pasta now. Also been cooking bigger stuff with other people when possible, which is a lot of fun. Nothing I ve cooked from this thread hasn t been good. From October I m living with an Italian guy, a Polish guy, and a very devout (and engaged at age 20) Welsh woman. I realise this is the set up to a joke. BUT we will have a ˜proper kitchen, so I m looking forward to getting more ambitious. I already feel a lot healthier, and as will probably surprise nobody here it turns out that being able to cook is a universally impressive trait, which is a nice side effect. This thread was/is such a lovely thing and so helpful. Thanks to everyone who s posted in it.

This thread's been a godsend. Learned yesterday that my summer studio internship requires cooking lunch for the staff each day. Anyone got some other easy recipes they'd not mind sharing?I'd be lost without all of you.

so far i've managed to set off the smoke detector every day this week. monday it was frying an egg. yesterday it was a dirty toaster. (then this morning it was a candle jar full of matches, but that doesn't count.)40 years old, you'd think i'd know when to quit.
