I could do it!
No surprise that I am a very bad cook. I won't blame myself for that. I was never forced by the circumstances to learn cooking. But now, when I have no choice, I have realised the possibility of a good cook within me!
Yesterday, a very strong urge to eat Desi khaana forced me to do googling and download recipes to cook mast spicy Bhaaji. I decided to try my hands on Aaloo-Gobhi Masala and collected all the ingredients from super-market. This being the first time, I decided to remain faithful to the downloaded instructions and not to apply my innovative ideas. Outcome was great! I had never imagined that I can make such tasty things. It was perhaps the most satisfying meal of my life!
When I was a kid, I used to wonder why all ladies wait with a pen and a paper for cook shows on TV. I always changed the Channel when I saw some big chef giving instructions to make things called Pasta Hot Pot or Mushroom Yum Yum. And now only, after so many years I am realising the importance of these cook shows. Truly said, "apni karni ka fal sabko milta hai".

Hmmm. Maybe liking something you cook has something to do with the physocological thing about the amount of effort that you put into making it.
Like a scientist, I suggest an independant opinion!
Congrats...I too learnt to make proper fulka chapatis and a aloo sabzi this time at home from my Mom. It really is satisfying, I agree.
@Samudrika: Agreed! Amount of effort is one of the factors..... but that doesn't discard the fact that I have turned from a bad cook into a good one. :)
@Basu: Hey! It's too early for you to learn all this stuff. But don't listen to me. You are on the right track.
