Hello all! What is your favorite simple dish? I am a fan of easy cooking. I don't like spending much time in the kitchen so I try to find the easiest and most delicious recipes. My favorite so far is pasta with tomato sauce and mushrooms. It's absolutely delicious and it's ready in less than 10 minutes.
Recently I've been eating the same thing quite a few times simply because it's so easy to make and also really good! It might sound simple but it really surprised me the first time I ate it how good it was: pasta with bacon, peas and creme fraiche, and some salt and pepper. It's delicious!
I like making "homemade" pizza. I use a jiffy mix for the dough and bottled pizza sauce, so it's not completely homemade, but it is my favorite meal. If I'm just making it for myself I usually have enough dough to make two pizzas and I stick one into the fridge for another day.
I love cooking omelettes. Not only is it nice and hearty and very easily customized, but also I find it very fun to cook. I think people underestimate it since it does look very simple to do, which it is, but there's also a considerable amount of technique to it to make it come out perfectly. In short, even though it is simple, I think it's a bit more complex than people give it credit for and I think it's a bit overlooked due to its simplicity especially now that we have so many new recipes to play around with. I still love preparing this dish regularly though. The ingredients for it are simple to find and we almost always have them and it's good for any meal of the day.
I love cooking a simple burger for my lunch. It is fairly easy to prepare and it does not really take much time to get it done. I usually begin by grilling the patty with some seasonings. While waiting for the patty being grilled, I heat up the cooking oil and defrost some french fries for a side dish. By the time I finish deep frying my fries, the patty is usually cooked well already. Once it is all done, I prep a sunny side up egg to go along with the burger. I combined the patty, eggs, and some sliced avocados with the buns; there you have it, my burgers is ready to be eaten along with the fries. I take joy in cooking the simple stuffs.
I actually use most of the suggestions above: pizza, hamburgers, omelettes. Also one really really simple one is pasta with a premade sauce. Just boil the pasta (5-10 minutes) and heat the sauce in the microwave... I also like to add slices of cucumber on the side for some veggies and it gives the dish a much more fresh look and taste.
