POLL: How often do you cook at home?

HouzzUK Polls

No matter where we live and how we live, in a big city or in the countryside, house or flat, sometimes it's nice to eat fresh, home-cooked meals.

There is only one drawback - you have to spend time on preparation!

Speaking honestly — there's no judgment here — how often do you cook at home?

...and if you cook at home, what's your favourite dish?

    I tend to cook everyday (I'd say I'm good but I don't have the time)... Even if it's chopping, throwing into pan and throwing into oven.... Not much time for anything else.. It goes something like this...

    fish, vegges, salad, chicken, vegges, salad, fish, salad, vegges, fish, vegges, chicken, salad, Oh and a crisp or two. : ) )

      I cook approximately 3-5 times a week depending on child, dogs and horse!

      I would say around 4 times a week, I like home cooking but rarely have the chance to cook every night as I spend more time working later and later these days.

      From Italian to Thai we prefer to cook our own food.

      Fast breakfasts and dinners on workdays (omeletes, casseroles, stir-fries, ramens, steaks - all the dishes which need just a half of hour or less to be done), bigger meals, usually including bakery and pastry, on week-ends.

      Depending on the weather and time of year as to what's cooked!
      Getting into casserole season now!
      Slow cooked beef casserole, carrots, parsnips, onions, red wine, a few sultanas with lots of gravy is my favourite.

      Now that I have my new kitchen, I spend most of my time in there, I love it, it has renewed my love for cooking :) So most days I am in the kitchen cooking.

      All the time! I try and cook whenever I can as I find it a really soothing and satisfying activity at the end of the day.

      I'm not sure I could pick a favourite dish - I've made a butternut squash & sage butter risotto a few times when having people over which is super simple but delicious! In a recent spur to become a vegetarian, last night I made a chickpea, spinach and okra curry which was really tasty. When in doubt - Nigella...

      I have this gorgeous Straub casserole pot, and cook the most delicious meat casseroles and also great lentil dishes in it. in oven and on hob. Also love soaking beans and rice, to speed up cooking,

      Like Tom, am a veggie and cook every day. Tend to cook enough for a couple of days. Tonight having left over roast vegetables: butternut squash, sweet potato, peppers, courgettes, tomatoes, aubergines and garlic with lots of olive oil and balsamic. It was very tasty, even if I say so myself! Get a lot of inspiration from Vanilla Black's cook book.

      Every day, twice in the week, maybe 3 times at weekends. I work full time but love cooking and find it relaxing. I don't have a favourite meal but prefer savory food to sweet.

      I'm no health nut but I do like to cook with fresh natural ingredients.I don't buy processed foods like quick dinners etc mainly because I don't want my children to be full of toxins etc and its a great way to show them how to cook which they love. Working full time I tend to prepare ahead otherwise I wouldnt be able to fit in the time to cook like I do. good planning for me is essential but worth it. there's nothing like a home cooked meal full of natural goodness and beautiful smell coming from the oven.

      Cook most days - like others above, well into slow cooker season now and always have it bubbling right to the top so that I can decant into portions and freeze for later on. Have lots of crumbles in the freezer - love a blackberry and apple crumble in the middle of winter and remembering the lovely sunny days in late summer when we went out blackberrying!
      Favourite cake at the moment to cook is lemon drizzle and have had a run on cooking roasted vegetables and roast lamb for guests recently - found a lovely recipe of balsamic vinegar, olive oil, chopped rosemary and thyme for the vegetables to be marinaded in beforehand! Yummy!

      Most evenings and sometimes more often at the weekends. This last weekend we went crazy with nostalgic meals: a braised beef with polenta like we used to eat in Bologna and a Mexican pork stew the day after, then an attempt to recreate my grandmother's hot milk sponge cake. My daughter and I basically spent all day in the kitchen. Bliss!

      I usually cook at home 5 or 6 times a week, and often cook more at the weekends and freeze it for during the week.

      I like cooking but don't have enough time for it. Fortunately, I have children that are trying to be independent and using rice cooker well. Lately I have been buying food for the week ahead, it's more easy than shopping everyday. Also. there are always some snacks to eat.
