1) Have patience. I cannot emphasize this one enough when someone is learning how to cook there’s gonna be a lot of trial and error.
2) Give constructive feedback/criticism. People always learn from their mistakes and appreciate feedback whether good or bad it helps them prevent the mistakes from happening again.
3) Start with something simple like eggs or pancakes. The best way to teach someone to cook is having them learn the basics first in specific having them learn the many ways to prepare eggs. Scrambled eggs for example is a great one to start with as it’s very simple to learn and if you make any mistakes they’re easy to learn from.
4) If need be guide them through it and maybe demonstrate more than once. Most times learning how to cook is just as much about watching how to do it as it is to follow verbal instructions and directions.
