I thought it might be fun to make a topic about the worst cooking mistakes we've made (and I've made loads!) the funnier the better! :laugh:

Once, I tried to make a polenta pie. The recipe was American and I had no idea what cornmeal was so substituted oatmeal... Result: cold, burnt porridge (it wouldn't boil firm like the recipe said!) in a pie dish filled with burnt vegetables (cos I definitely remembered to turn the pan off when doing the 'cornmeal'!)

This morning I tried to make celery juice instead of orange. I then tried to add carrot to make it better. That failed, so I tried to fry it to turn it into a sauce. :sick:

what are yours? :smile:

    one time i tried to make chocolate chip cookies with splenda and yogurt margarine. they turned out as muffins somehow.

    i wonder if it was the margarine. when i make them with sugar and butter, they work just fine.
