I would advise the following: buy those Maggi packages with recipes on them.. Usually all you need to do to cook food from there is divided in just 3 steps. Very easy and yet professional.
Beans on Toast with cheese
I have a 10 year old that can cook this ';Impossible Pie'; It is like a crust less quiche. All the ingredients are mixed together in a bowl, poured into a baking dish and baked. It can be served with vegies or chips and salad. It can even be eaten cold.


Recipe is as follows:





INGREDIENTS:


4 eggs, 1 cup milk, 1 cup bacon pieces, 1/2 cup grated tasty cheese, 1 medium onion, diced, 1 cup pastry mix, salt %26amp; pepper.





METHOD:


Beat the eggs and milk together then add the bacon, cheese, onion, salt and pepper. Stir in the pastry mix with a fork making sure there are no lumps. Pour into a lightly greased quiche or pie dish. Bake in a pre-heated, 180oC, oven for 30 to 40 minutes or until golden.





(Try adding diced tomato or parsley for added flavour.)





ENJOY!!!!!!!
Steak Sandwich





1 large strip, round, or shell sirloin steak, weighing between 12 ounces and 1 pound





1/2 t. coarsely ground black pepper





Salt to taste





2-3 T. oil





2 T. chopped onion





4 oz. crimini mushrooms, cleaned and chopped





1/2 t. thyme





1 loaf French or Italian bread, or 1 Vienna loaf





3-4 T. prepared mustard





Trim any excess fat from the steak. Sprinkle both sides with pepper and salt, then brush with a tablespoon of the oil. Heat a cast-iron or nonstick pan and sear the steak about 2 minutes on each side. Remove from the pan. Cook the onion for 2 minutes in the remaining oil, then add the chopped mushrooms, sprinkling them with the thyme and a little salt. Cook, stirring, until they have softened. If the mixture dries out, add a tablespoon or so of water.





Cut a large piece of bread about 1 inch longer than the steak. (If you're using a Vienna loaf, you may not need to cut it at all.) Slice it lengthwise through the middle, leaving an uncut edge as a hinge. Spread both cut sides of the bread liberally with mustard. Now place the steak on the bottom half and scatter the mushroom mixture on top. Fold the top half of the bread down. Wrap the sandwich in two layers of plastic wrap. Take a long piece of string and tie the sandwich up tightly as if it were a parcel, knotting the string in several places. Put the sandwich on a plate and place another plate on top of it. Now weight it down with either cans of food or a bowl filled with water. Leave it for 8 hours or overnight in the refrigerator or other cold place. When you rescue it from the weights, it will be firm and flat. For serving, unwrap it and slice it on the diagonal so you have several strips, each about 3/4 to 1 inch wide. Arrange these on a platter with a bowl of relish or chutney to accompany them
Sausages and mash with peas





Grill the sausages or boil them


Boil the peas


and use instant mashed potatoes

stick the pasta in water, boil it, put the hot dogs in the microwave (4 for 2ppl) when they're done cut them up into little bits. Heat the beans in a pan, drain the pasta, mix all the ingredients up and serve. simple and very tasty!
try pizza, so easy!
More of a dessert, but chocolate cake.





Basic sponge with cocoa, then make a butter based icing to put over it and show them how to make patterns. Looks impressive because of the patterns, but isn't too hard to make.
Try making some bread with cheese and vegetables in or fish pie or something. You could see the recipes on missoandfriends.com, they're easy. Btw I started my first Home Ec class this year so thats some stuff they taught us.

A Spanish omelete. Colourfull, tasty and very easy to do. They can also chose their own crazy ingredients. I think it's a cheap dish where they can use their imagination. Go for the egg...


If you think is a bit to easy go for a nice curry. They will need practice for later when they reach our age don't you think???
Spaghetti Carbonara theres a good recipe on bbc.co.uk/food who can resist bacon cheese and cream and it only takes 20 mins.
It has to be Chilli con carne.


It was the first dish I learned to cook, I still make it and EVERYONE enjoys it.





500g lean beef mince


2 medium onions


2 Cloves garlic - peeled and crushed


400g tinned chopped tomatoes


400g tinned kidney beans in chilli sauce


Dollop of ketchup


Chillis (optional)


Chilli powder (optional - depends how much spice you like)





Using a big saucepan


Brown the mince, draining any extra fat


Add onions and garlic - fry till lightly golden


Add kidney beans


Add tinned tomatoes


Add ketchup


Add chillis and powder if you wish.


Simmer on a low heat for about 30mins.


However, the slower and longer you cook it the better it tastes.





Serve with bolied rice or chips or pitta bread - anything you want





PS. A spoonful of soured cream tastes amazing with chilli.





Good luck and enjoy. x
Omelette's they are easy cheap and you can add whatever you want to change the taste, ideal for a novice cook.
ONE PAN COOKING,they never wash up, a basic beef stew with dumpling is very easy, you can miss out the potatos and use a packet mash or teach them how to peel a potato and mash them with butter and spring onion, stack the mash ,ladle the stew around, tasty and impressive, if you dont like potato, substitute with rice or pasta. LF
spag bol pritty cheap to make (if you know where to go) (try markets) and its very easy i cant cook at all but i live off the stuff





bit of a tip if you fry some bacon in the pan before starting making it it taste about 10 times better
Lasagna is good! Another good thing is chicken soup!
spag bol , shepards pie, chicken casserole , roast lunch
