This is why I like Ethan Chlebowski. He advocate to not learn recipe for home cook but straight to the basic. How to combine and mix ingredients so you can eat well with whatever you have. After you have build up those basic, then you can look at recipe so you know what can be substituted with what you have, and what you really need to have and buy new. Along the way, hopefully you'll also be more proficient in using your knife which constitutes most of the prep time

„One pot recipe“
Needs like 4 kitchen gadgets, 12 prep bowls, 1000sqft of work area
For me, no meal involving cooking and more than a couple ingredients is getting done faster than 40 minutes
replies:
all those receipes assume you know how to cook in general - people not cooking on a regular basis will always take longer that 15 minutes to prep meals.
my tip: cook a small amount once even if it takes a while; if you are fine with the result, cook a larger amount that you can freeze or store for future meals, reducing your total cooking time far below those 15 minutes. dont just do large amount first - you will profit from having done the receipe before and achieve a better tasting meal the second time.

I just want recipes that leave me with the fewest dishes possible. Instead i open up a one pot recipe and somehow i have 15 dishes to do
replies:
1 hour, four pots, seven bowls and three ingredients I forgot
I've got everything down to about 15 minutes of me having to participate before the rice cooker or air fryer takes over
I always skip the "quick and easy" recipes. Cooking is fun, and I want to feel a kick of dopamine after I'm done. I don't want to make Cathy Mitchells dump dinners.

'Muricans can't cook
Most of their "cooking" is from tins and packets
To make Bland, shitty, 'Murican slop, start with a box of shitty excuse for food and add a packet of crap you could just do yourself, add a huge amount of sugar and then deep-fry
