How to cook

[(Anonymous)]

I'm out on my own for the first time and I'm coming to discover that my cooking skills aren't the best. I can make basic things like eggs, pasta, ect, but don't go much beyond that.

I favor things that are quick and healthy to make. Any recipes are welcome! Or tips on what to put in my pantry.

Having a supply of non perishable staples is a good idea: rice, dried beans, canned tomatoes, etc. Hit up Aldi if you have one near you, they're usually pretty good for basic stuff. Also learn to look up grocery ads and keep track of sale prices for the things you buy regularly. Use your freezer to stock up on meat when it's on sale. Whole chicken, chicken thighs/drumsticks and leg quarters are some of the cheapest meat around here. Ditto shoulder cuts of pork, but that will need longer cooking time.

Consider getting a crockpot. Not everyone likes it, but if you don't mind a lot of stew-like dishes, they're fantastic for cheap cuts of beef and pork that need to cook for ages before it's tender. Also build up a small stock of herbs and spices if you can, because they make a lot of cheap food much more palatable.

There's always things like turkey loaf (use lean ground turkey) or meat loaf (lean ground beef) that's quick to make & only takes an hour to cook in the oven. What's left over should last 2-3 days so you don't have to cook again. :)

Roast chicken. Whole chickens are usually pretty cheap per pound, it's delicious and surprisingly fancy if you ever need a main course for a dinner party, and you can also use the bones to make chicken stock or soup.

What you do is get a whole chicken, roughly 3-4 lbs. It can be labeled "fryer chicken" or "roasting chicken", it doesn't really matter. Remove the baggie of organs/whatever inside the chicken and throw it away. (There are things you could do with them if you're so inclined, but eh, I just toss 'em mostly.) Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel, because dry skin = crisp skin. Rub it generously with olive oil, salt and pepper. If you want, you can add herbs like dried thyme to the rub, or lemon pepper, or garlic powder, whatever you like. You can stuff wedges of raw onion and lemon into the cavity, or not.

If you want, you can dice some potatoes, carrots and onion into large chunks, toss them with olive oil, salt and pepper, and arrange them around your chicken. Don't crowd the pan or they won't cook properly! It's okay if the individual pieces to be touching, but you don't want piles of potatoes on top of one another. Single layer.

You need a sturdy roasting pan with sides at least 2" high. Preheat the oven to 425 F. Stick in the chicken and root vegetables if you're using them, and bake 1 hour. Skin should be crispy and golden, and when you poke a knife in the joint between the drumstick and the thigh, the juices ought to run clear. Not bloody, not pink, in other words.
