Steak, fish, boiled potatoes and fish pudding, basically anything my dad made.

I was 18 when I found out steak wasn’t supposed to be rubber. The foods in themselves should be good, but the way he prepared them, ruined everything.

Now as an adult with my own kitchen and money, I can make the meals phenomenal in comparison to what dad made.

Take the dish fried rice, everyone is head over heels about it, billions of people eat it. But for me it’s associated with some really terrible shit. Soggy rice, canned corn, grey minced meat, canned champignon and lots of oil. No seasoning except salt and the oil.
