Foods you refuse to make yourself, yet enjoy - Look I'm lazy cook it for me!

[Bassomatic]

I know many Kiwi's myself included like their food, and I thought to myself there are a few foods I just refuse to make. Skills, time, money aside. I'll just let someone else do it.

For me it's shellfish. I love shellfish, mussels esp and raw oysters. Part of the treat is I can gorge with no effort.

The other food is stuffed grape leafs. They are not hard to make but I just want to stuff them in my mouth and be lazy.

Beef sauerbraten. It takes too much time to make but god is it delicious when the right people do it justice.

French Toast. Fuck mixing all the shit together in the morning before I've had a chance to take a shot or guzzle coffee.

But god fucking damn if it isn't the most satisfying shit ever.

 

[Titty Figurine]

I do not fuck with phyllo dough. I buy that shit in the freezer aisle.

A lot of soups. They always require a shit ton of ingredients, take a long-ass time to boil, and you have to orbit them every 5 - 10 minutes. I'd rather go to a cafe to eat my borsch, thank you.

I agree with soup, especially cabbage soup which I really love sometimes. It stinks and I hate to cut the cabbage, which is also too big to store properly here. Also things like carrot salad or cucumber salad. Its awesome, but i hate to prepare it. Damn, there are few things better than self-made soup. Just blending some steamed brocoli and reheating it with cream and spices and bacon is easy though.
Regarding oysters and mussels, I cannot live without it anymore!

Homemade mac and cheese. I just can't ever make the roux right and it ends up tasting like cooked macaroni and flour every time.

All of them. My mom makes all the food for me.

Pizza. Anything other than delivery or DiGornio is just unnatural

Same with me. It would be cheating mentioning tacos as I have made them for myself once or twice when learning to cook

 

[AnOminous]

Cassoulet. It's just ridiculously involved to make, especially if you actually start with duck legs and make the confit de canard. This dish takes literally days to make. And minutes to eat.

 

[Nekromantik]

Cooking is my zen. The longer I need to do it the happier I am. I don't know maybe I'm weird.

 

[Plague Spectrum]

Hard boiled eggs/ deviled eggs. I can never get them right, the eggs always crack.

 

[Somsnosa]

Any kind of bakery. After the saddest looking gingerbread cookies on earth I made last Christmas, I have completely given up. I exist to eat ricotta pies and olive bread

 

[Judge Holden]

You niggers all disgust me

Real bros learn to cook and create imitations of comfort food superior to the originals, like my double bacon big mac or two inch deep chicago pizza pie

...ok i admit I never made sushi for myself despite loving it. its just too much an expensive hassle

Did you chill the dough before you cut them? That helps them keep their shape.

 

[MerriedxReldnahc]

I'm a really good cook and baker for the most part but I'd rather order pizza than make it. I'm sure it's easy, but I also like Round Table so fuck that.
While I will make pie on a special occasion, I would rather buy one from our local farmstand. Pie crust sucks to make and I can't make a pretty lattice to save my life.

 

[GentlemanFaggot]

Pizza. Every time I've done it, I've ended up with something I've shoved down the garbage disposal. I can't fucking get the dough right.

 

[NumberingYourState]

Rump Roast.

The thought of one little detail going awry and turning a good cut of beef into a shoehorn is a fear of mine.
