Whenever I want an interesting recipe to try for the first time I use this site: http://missrecipe.com. What I like best about this site is that all the photographs are obviously home-made and this tells me that the recipes were cooked and tested by real people.

Don’t get me wrong, I like using television cooks recipes but they all tend to have been tested to death by a bunch of home economists and they all come out a but bland. By contrast. Miss Recipe looks and feels like my own kitchen scrapbook. Like many keen home cooks, I will try recipes but make a twist depending on what ingredients I have to hand.

Sometimes my experiments work, like the time I made chili without chili powder, and sometimes they fail, like the time I made trifle without custard. The way to get better as a cook is to record the successes and failures and not to be afraid to experiment with food.
