I drunkenly told a rather fine girl that I would cook her a meal whilst on a night out last weekend. After I did this, I completely forgot about it and got on with my life, completely obivious to the impending doom I'd just caused myself.
I spent until 5am this morning playing left4dead thinking I had a nice day off work where I could sleep, only to get a text about 10 minutes ago reminding me of our little date tonight. ****!
I have NEVER cooked anything other than pasta and a good fry-up. I have 7 hours to come up with a meal that isn't pasta and sauce, that looks impressive and will go down well with a good bottle of wine. I have no idea where to start?!?!
Also, to make matters worse, I live in Poland where it's damn hard to figure out what most ingredients are (due to still learning the language).
One of you must be a culinary genius capable of giving me an absolute idiots guide to cooking something nice that someone as completely inept as myself could learn this afternoon.
I want to avoid pasta if possible and do something really impressive - asking a lot I know!
ARGH! Please?
