Plum Cake
It's one of the simplest dessert recipes that I know, and I highly recommend it to try if you are a beginner.

I'm your everyday immigrant blue-collar, and pretty much every stereotype applies. I don't code, I don't have value to add, I don't even have a computer. Take it for what it is and don't have expectations. I'm here to learn.
French pancakes (Crêpes)
This is the recipe from the French culinary school.
Dutch Oven Bread
While this is a very simple and effortless recipe, the waiting times between phases recommend it for moments when you have other things to do.
Soft Ricotta Cake (Tarta Morbida alla Ricotta)
You'll see repeating ingredients because I separated the dough and the filling.
Pan di Spagna (Sponge Cake)
The name dates back to the Ottoman Empire, but it can vary by country; English speakers know it as sponge cake. While it's commonly used for celebratory cakes, the same composition is also used for Ladyfingers, which are featured in desserts such as Tiramisu and Zuccotto. You probably know those dry shelf Ladyfingers, but I don't quite recommend them.
CURED TENDERLOIN
Curing meat can be simple and very healthy, especially if you don't have a big house with a barn, smoker and so on. I will use the example of pork tenderloin, but you can apply the same principle to duck breast and some cuts of beef.
COTTAGE PIE
This is a basic recipe that allows you to build on it according to your taste, with more details provided at the end. Additionally, it is perfectly fine just as it is, and you should try it this way for the first time or if you are a beginner.
BASIC TOMATO SAUCE
It's a good occasion to get rid of older vegetables, and it's an instant upgrade for the taste of your pasta, pizza, meatballs, soup, etc. This is not a fixed recipe so you can make it with whatever ingredients you have. Tho, I'd say that the tomatoes are a must.
YOUR FIRST BREAD
If you want to try baking a loaf of bread, perhaps even your first, here's the simplest recipe I know. No sourdough, no kneading, no complications. You will need a so-called Dutch oven (cast iron pot). I just saw one in the supermarket for €29,99.
GREEK PITA RECIPE
There are various names for this, I chose this one, which I believe is more popular.
Jam (universal recipe)
Making the jam is a breeze, the only possible inconvenience is when you sterilise the jars.
