Yes both my wife and I enjoy cooking everything from scratch; she is better at the british traditional dishes, and I cover mainly the asian & european side. We batch cook with fresh ingredients and freeze most of it to save time and money, also to ensure we aren't eating too much salt, fat and sugar.
I batched cooked 28 curries one morning last week.
When I meet people who say they can't cook, I do wonder if you've they've got a TV or any idea what an internet connection is! I started in the 1960's with a book with black & white drawings on every few pages so most recipies gave you no idea what it was meant to look like when you were done.
The massive upgrade today with, TicTok, YouTube etc where you can watch people step-by-step cooking anything on the planet is light years from those dark days.
So I agree with you, get out there, get the ingrediants, take the time, make the effort & upgrade your life, big time!
