Hello Veeky Forums. I'm 18 years old, I just started to live alone and I don't know shit about cooking. I realized that making your own food is cheaper than any other options, so I thought learning how to cook would be nice. The problem is, I only know the basic-basic stuff. That's because my mom was too over-protective and always wanted to make my dishes, which was nice, but it fucked me a bit in certain aspects. Anyways, what would be your tips for learning how to cook, basically from 0?
>Pic unrelated, but I always liked it a lot for some reason
Go visit your mom and tell her to teach you how to cook your favorite meals.

>Anyways, what would be your tips for learning how to cook, basically from 0? If you like tofu, I'd suggest learning how to make pan/stir fried vegetables with tofu. Broccoli, cabbage, carrot, and onion are my favorite vegetables for this. Bok choi and green onion are good as well.
Use something along the lines of pic related for the sauce. I always like to add gochujang pepper paste as well. Either adding rice noodles to the pan or just having rice on the side works. Add a little oil to the pan, wait until it's hot, and add most of the vegetables+tofu, and then the onions+sauce towards the end.
Experiment and see what you like the most. I dunno, never seemed very hard to me.

Soup is also damn filling. With a some powdered stock to go with the miso paste you got yourself a nice meal in itself plus enough salt for a single meal
