My Mum wasn't a brilliant cook but considering she was totally blind she was amazing. The best thing I remember her cooking was apple pie. The pastry was lovely and light and the cooking apples weren't sweetened too much. Neither she nor I had much of a sweet tooth.
As for my Dad, he didn't cook very much but I do remember the time when my Mum had to go away on a residential course to train for her first guide dog. I must have been about twelve. Dad made a lovely salad with lettuce and tomatoes from the garden and some kind of fried pastry squares plus some home-made salad cream. I'm not sure if he really knew what he was making but I loved it and I remember it now!
So what about you? What was the best dish your Mum and/or Dad made. Even if they were the worst cooks in the world - what was the best they did?
