So, this idea i had thrown awhile in my head around during the lockdown at times were i did run out of hobby material, was that i'd share my other wierd passion: Cooking.

Premise is simple:
Post your favorite Recipe, including but not limited to Grandmas magic christmas dinner or the best way to make garlic bread to how to make porridge, etc.

I'll start:

First things first:
Start boiling water for the Spaghetti, meanwhile prepare the other ingredients. (mostly pressing garlic)

When the water boils, salt it throw the spagetti or equiv noodle variant in.

Start frying bacon in a frying pan no fet required, it's bacon afterall, when it has turned slightly brown add garlic and if you have some small pieces of peperoncini.
Add whitewine to the bacon. Afterwards add a bit of cognac, proceed to light the cognac, hence the flamed part. wait until flame has died down, add tomatosauce and herbs aswell as cream around it.
