My headcanons on how cooking without a recipe with them would go
An: aaaaaaaa Iβm so sorry for not posting for some time, lifeβs been kinda hectic these days and Iβm still trying to finish some of the requestsπ also itβs my birthday today :) (Not proofread so sorry for any mistakes)

He had been craving chicken nuggets for a while now, so you offered to make some homemade ones with him
You found a good recipe online but he insisted following a recipe wasnβt needed
βItβs literally just chicken and breadcrumbs, we can just wing itβ pun not intended
It had already gone wrong when you went shopping for ingredients
Instead of buying chicken cutlets, mf bought a whole ass grilled chicken
βSince itβs already grilled we canβt get salmon vanillaπβ
Cutting the chicken into bite sized pieces was a disaster
He somehow nearly stabbed you
You told him youβd take over the cutting from him and he could toss the chicken chunks into some egg and breadcrumbs
Literally the easiest task, right?
When I tell you this mf licked his fingers EVERYTIME he dipped a chicken piece into the beaten egg
You went on to frying the chicken after you banned him from the kitchen
He was kinda sad about it
But it was the right thing to do
To cheer him up a bit you put a flag on the top chicken nugget on the plate
After taking your first bite you realized you forgot the seasoning because of the chaosπ
He fought for his life on the toilet that night (donβt eat raw egg kids!)

You were incredibly hungry after getting back from driving through the countryside on the back of Drakenβs motorcycle
He offered to make his special hot curry for the both of you
Since you were absolutely famished, of course you couldnβt reject his generous offer
You watched him get all the ingredients he needed
You asked if he needed a recipe, to which he replied that heβd already made it so many times, he knew the recipe by heart
Growing up without parents made him a fairly good cook
He began with cooking the rice
Then he cut the chicken and vegetables into bite-sized chunks Γ la gordon ramsey or so he tried
You offered your help, but he refused to let you lift a single finger
He cooked onion and garlic in a pan until they became fragrant
He added the chicken and vegetables to the pan
While he was preparing the grated apple and honey for the curry roux in a pot with water, the smell of something burning began to fill the kitchen
βWhatβs that funky smell, did you just fart- SHIT THE PANβ
He RAN to his vegetables and tried to save them from completely burning to a crisp
He successfully saved them after turning down the heat and burning his fingers trying to toss out some black pieces of carrot
He was so focused on flexing his cooking skills on you, he totally forgot he was, indeed, cooking
You helped him pour ice cold water on his burned finger tips to ease the pain, which he secretly really appreciated even though he tried to act chill about it
βYouβre always so overly worried, it doesnβt even hurtβ ow ow ow ow ow ow
He went on to add the curry roux with the chicken and vegetables and turned off the heat
When the curry roux pieces were completely dissolved, he served the curry with the rice on the fanciest plates he owned aka not made out of paper
Even after some trouble, the dish was absolutely delicious

He wanted to make a Swiss roll with you for a long time and you guys finally found the time to do it
At first you were really working together as a team
But later on he wanted to play dumb
βCan you please show me how to make the filling? I donβt know how to do it :(β
He does, he knows how to do it, he just likes to see you mix all the ingredients and explain everything carefully to him
Itβs when he started to throw compliments your way mid-explanation that you knew what he was doing
So you told him that it was his turn to put everything you just told him into practice :)
Boy was dumbfounded, flabbergasted even
He was CONVINCED that he could just let you do all the work
Didnβt try to play dumb after tho, he was already caught once, chances of him getting caught twice were too big
But he was actually useful after you put him in his place
Some mistakes were made here and there like adding too much red food colouring, making the cake batter red instead of pink
Rolling up the Swiss roll almost failed miserably, the cake nearly broke
But everything turned out fine after a lot of screaming and panicking from both of you
The time had come for the cake to rest in the refrigerator for a couple of hours
Mf couldnβt wait and ate half of it by the time the Swiss roll was actually done restingπ
He didnβt help you clean up either, said he was too sick to move
Never baked anything with him after
βββββββββββββββββββββ
Just like most days, he was realllyyyyyy craving some peyoung yakisoba
He didnβt have any at home, nor did he have any money, nor did he know how to make it with the ingredients he had
So he texted you to come over and buy some yakisoba for him
Since you know that him trying to cook on his own would result in the kitchen being on fire, you accepted his demand request
You showed up to his home with a backpack filled with peyoung yakisoba
He tried to reach for the packets in your backpack but you flicked his hand away before he could manage to grab them
Not even a thank you? Tch
Anyway, you prepared some boiling water for the instant noodles before he tried to eat them raw
βTheyβre crispy that way! Whatβs wrong with crispy noodles?!β
Of course this mf doesnβt even know how to prepare instant noodles, so you had to do everything on your own
It was for the best tbh, heβd probably manage to screw up the most simple steps
But you let him empty the sachets with seasoning into the noodles, since banning him from the kitchen would be useless
Heβd just keep coming back
However, you were right about him screwing up simple things
Instead of first opening the sachets, he just tossed them in, unopened
You didnβt have the energy to get mad at him tbhπ
You chased him out of the kitchen with a dough roller and fished out the seasoning sachets
He finally left you alone, so you were able to finish preparing the yakisoba
You insisted on just ordering takeout pizza for him next time

It was your birthday and so he decided to bake you a cake
He turned to pinterest for some inspiration to bake the most aesthetic cake youβve ever seen
After scrolling for hours in search for the perfect cake, he decided on baking a matcha white chocolate cake with green frosting and decorated with edible flowers
He got the ingredients and got straight to work
First he made the batter with utmost precision, even without a recipe to follow along
Not even a tiny piece of egg shell in the batter, what a professional
Has this cooking playlist that he hums to while baking your cake
This man has incredibly steady hands, meaning that when he poured the batter into the heart shaped cake form, no batter was spilled
Like when he finished baking, he didnβt even need to do any cleaning up, the kitchen was still clean af
When the cake was done baking, he put on those cute lil oven mitts and successfully got the cake out of the oven
Even while his little sisters were dangling from his legs, he managed to decorate the cake with an inhuman precision
To top it off he wrote a sweet happy birthday message on the cake :)
Delivered the cake personally to you in a cute green box, matching the cake
Possibly the best cake you ever had, period
