A useless git I knew at uni couldn't cook.
He noticed I was eating sausage & mash one night and asked for instructions. I told him it is easy
a) put sausages under medium-hot grill
b) put peeled spuds in pan with boiling water and a little salt
c) after 12 or so minutes the spuds should be soft - mash 'em up with a bit of salt, pepper, butter and even a splash of milk.
d) by the time you have done that, your sausages will be done.
ta-daaaah!
He called me down to the kitchen 30 minutes later in a panic, and in hindsight, it was my fault really, but I didn't really think I had to include the steps turn sausages frequently and drain the fucking water from pan before mashing
That was the 'worst food I ever cooked by proxy'
He died 1 year later after trying to catch a bus.
