What was the first thing you learned how to cook?

Mine was lasagne :laugh: I was about 9 or 10 and my mum taught me. I knew how to use an oven before that, but that was the first thing I'd actually learned to make rather than just dumping some chips or something onto a tray and chucking it in the oven. How about you?

Scrambled egg :h:
You guys were so sophisticated with your first forays into cooking. I boiled some pasta and then heated it up with some pesto. Stuck some cheese on and hey presto! But then again no one taught me, it was an experiment!
