Meals for students - share your ideas here!
DS is off to university in a month, so I've got that long to train him up on looking after himself!
He's just about mastered doing his own laundry, so now we're onto cooking. I've explained that cooking doesn't just mean bunging something in the microwave.
So, I want to get him cooking a few basic meals that will keep him going. Bear in mind that he'll have a shared kitchen (so won't be able to spend hours cooking), will have a limited number of utensils and will be on a budget.
So far he can cook pasta, make an omelette and heat a tin of soup!
I'm going to show him how to boil vegetables and potatoes, how to grill chicken, how to make a stir fry and how to boil rice.
What basics do you think are vital for a first year student? Have you got any recipes for quick and easy meals?
