Many of us have a time in our lives when we cook for one and, although there are many recipes that can be made for more and portions frozen for later, it is nice to have ideas which we can cook quickly and simply in a single portion. The emphasis of this course will be the latter, though we will look at things where it is sensible to make in larger quantities for fuel efficiency and freeze, such as soups and casseroles.
