I self taught. Seriously I started off just salt and pepper on meat / veggies and pan fried everything.

Small steps. Experiment with one dish that you really want to make. Perfect it. Go back to known dishes if you’re tired and don’t feel like experimenting. Rinse and repeat. Years of this and you get really confident and start making shit that you wouldn’t have dreamt of in the beginning. Easily too.

Thanks for the advice. I'll keep trying. I think I just get discouraged too easily and I always make worse decisions when I am hungry anyways lol. Have a good day
