He seems to like girls who are good at cooking, and I’m supposed to cook for him next time. But I hate cooking and I’m terrible at it, so could you recommend something he’d enjoy that even someone as bad at cooking as me could make and that would still taste good?

I get Uber Eats for every meal, so I find myself wondering why, in this day and age, he expects someone to be good at cooking.
I’d appreciate your suggestions!

If you’re not someone who enjoys being treated to home-cooked meals, but rather a papa (a male supporter) who prefers girls who are good at cooking, I think it would be better to be honest instead of trying to somehow push through it. In the long run, that will probably work out better for you.

First of all, I’m wondering how you ended up having to cook for a papa who supposedly likes girls who are good at cooking, when you usually order Uber Eats for every meal.
Did you accidentally say, “I can cook!” without realizing it would lead to this?
It was a tactical mistake, but there’s not much you can do about it now. Check Cookpad and choose something that looks impressive on its own; add miso soup or another soup, and that should be enough. Chinese-style stir-fries are easy.
As long as you can read, you won’t fail.

Thanks for your question.
You might worry that cooking for someone who loves a good cook would only disappoint them. But if they simply like the idea of a home-cooked meal, they may just be happy that you made something for them.
If it’s the former:
> I order Uber Eats for every meal.
You could order something a little early, then transfer it onto plates yourself to make it look homemade. Though I feel like it would all be over if they saw you doing it up close.
If it’s the latter:
With something like curry, I don’t think you’d have much trouble with the taste—as long as you use curry roux rather than making it completely from scratch.
Oh, and as Riichi mentioned, hot pot also seems pretty hard to mess up.
P.S. A “boob bento” sounds pretty interesting.
I feel like it transcends whether you’re actually good at cooking or not.

Just plate up some prepared food from the supermarket, and it’ll be perfect!
It’s a good idea to sample things in advance and find some tasty options.
I was stunned by that man’s old-school, Showa-era mindset—expecting something I don’t even ask of my own wife.
