Hi vlr.gg,
before I go to bed I would like to ask for anyone who cooks food at home to drop some dish recommendations. Im going to the grocery store tomorrow to buy ingredients in the hopes of improving my cooking skills.
Best, geospliced
Home cooks come please

as someone mentioned, pasta dishes are always pretty good for beginners
idk if they have ingredients for tteokbokki, but that would be a shout to make
make your own chili oil
not a dish but you can put it on anything savoury and it becomes 100x better
omelettes are good. i like making them with veggies and sausage and when ur bad at making them you get delicious scrambled eggs instead so low stress.
i also like making butter chicken, its good on rice. keeps well too since the flavors are strong.
any bbq foods are good even when kinda poorly made. burgers, kebabs, pulled pork, lil weenies, etc.
mirapoux based soups are easy to learn as well and teach a lot of cooking skills. learning to chop veggies/butcher chicken is less stressful when they become soup rather than ratatouille.
any loafs like banana bread or pumpkin loaf are good learning deserts that also make good gifts. you can usually adjust ingredients like sugar or flavoring to your liking and get a sense of your oven/humidity/etc before moving onto harder dishes.

oh and if you want to try weird american dishes tater tot casserole, 5 layer dip, and ambrosia salad are both strange enough to motivate someone to cook just out of morbid curiousity.
HELLO! I know some people get nervous making chicken, but finding a chicken dish like chicken marsala that you love and can whip up quickly rocks.
Congee is amazing and a go to for me.
Pasta dishes are great for beginners, echoing what people are saying.
Slow cooker recipes, if you have one, are always good because you just throw stuff into a pot and call it a day!

Sharwarma, Sweat Potato, Yam, Rice, Jollof Rice, Fried Rice, Bagels, Bread and Egg/Butter, Noodles, Macaroni, Semovita, Eba, Amala, Porridge Beans, Pounded Yam, and more that I forgot
yakiudon, braised pork belly, and miso glazed salmon are some of my favorites to make ! (bonus points if you add siracha and mayo on top of the salmon and eat it with seaweed and rice)
