I'm 25 years old, and a very very average cook. Vegetarian dishes and things with potato. My Nan is amazing with most foods, but I really remember her baking cakes and biscuits when I was younger. Whenever we get together, we have some kind of Roast for dinner, although this may change soon with people turning vege! Queens Birthday 2005. I cooked a Roast Dinner with beef, vegetables, carrots, gravy and yorkshire puddings for 12 people. The yorkshire puddings were definitely the highlight. There was also a berry trifle to follow. I have inherited a very british cooking style from my Nan. I tried to bake some afghans last year, but the mixture melted all over the bottom of the pan and burnt!
