Basic Cooking: Measuring

So, you can measure dry things now, can't you? Well, what if you want to make something with a litre of water in it? You could trust your sense. What's that? You don't have sense? Well, then you get a liquid measuring cup. What's that? You don't know how to use it? Well, then, here it is...

Measuring water
Get your 100ml cup, if you have one, and fill it with water. Say you need a litre of water. Now get that 100ml and pour it in a pot. Then, so you have a litre, get another nine of those and put them in the pot. You get it? 100ml*10=100ml=1 litre. Got that? Well done! You could boil something in that if you want.

Simple, eh?

Basic Recipe: Fried Potatoes

To make this recipe I thought to my self "How would a dummy do this?" Of course, I knew I was going to fry potatoes, but I didn't think of the other things. Just like you might.

some oil
a frying pan
a knife
a wooden spoon

Preparation
1. Wash the potato! (and your hands, if you want)
2. Cut the potato in half
3. Then in half again
4. Then in half again
5. Then in half again
6. Then in half again
7. Put the frying pan, with oil on it, on the stove
8. Turn the stove on
9. Every minute or two, stir the potatoes with the wooden spoon
10. Cook for 25-30 minutes until it is cooked through
11. Serve on a plate

What? You wanted it to serve 4 people? You'll need for potatoes!
