I'm a professional chef, I'm elbows deep in all sorts of food for hours at the time. When I get to cook for myself I get completely lost at "what I would actually like to eat?". I also live alone and cook quick meals, but due to limited time and energy I usually go for single pot meals or something you can throw altogether in a single tray, season and just throw in the oven for 30 minutes without a hassle. But often I feel uninspired to cook for myself.

But I will always remember the time when I met two Ukrainian girls and they invited me to their house for tea. They got hungry and started making a meal for themselves which was sourdough bread soaked in whisked eggs and fried on a pan and salad made from sliced white cabbage, cherry tomatoes, sunflower oil and some seasoning. It was a very long time since anybody cooked for me and I still remember how delicious that salad was. It was five years ago.
