Question by Ayla: How do I learn to cook without wasting food?
I can cook some things like crab rangoon, tuna casserole, easy stuff. I want to cook the dishes my mom makes and other recipes (she shows me but she always estimates the time and amount she puts in which is hard).

I want to learn to cook but I’m afraid I’ll do terrible and the food will go to waste, I hate wasting food. Any advice? Oh, and I’m always too lazy with no motivation to cook…I always end up buying some fast-food or my mom’s left over cooking.

Buy yourself a cook book and follow directions to a tee. If you can read, you can cook.
