So I do this thing for my friends' birthdays, where I tell them I'll cook them whatever the fuck they want for dinner. Throw me a curveball make it complex, and if it requires more than a day of prep, then they should let me know in advance.
So it's always funny to me when mentally im prepared for multiple days of cooking and then someone's like, oh, just make me beef Stroganoff, or something simple.
Peanut butter and jelly from scratch.
Re: make your own sourdough starter, then bake the bread.
Make your own peanut butter & then make your own jelly.
My wife will occasionally offer something similar for my Birthday. My favorite “complex” meal is usually a savory pie of some kind. I especially love hand pies, like a curry chicken and butternut squash/leek combination. It’s just so much work that I hate asking for it.
Mmmmm now I wanna make meat pies 🤤
What would you want?
I don't actually get asked that question very often. 🤔
A full-on Indian spread. Homemade naan, a goat curry, a Rice dish, lots of spiced veggies. Just a spread of dishes with a classic Indian theme. At least that's what I would love right now.
