Recipe Disasters

When Things Go Wrong in the Kitchen

Here's a collection of recipes that didn't quite make it out the door.

The Great Spaghetti Sauce Splotch

It was supposed to be a simple spaghetti Bolognese, but it turned into a sauce-splotched disaster.

Ingredients:

1 cup of spaghetti

1 cup of what used to be sauce

Instructions:

Boil the spaghetti until it's not too hard

Try to remember what the sauce was supposed to look like before it turned into a splatter paint job

The Overcooked Omelette

This omelette was supposed to be fluffy, but it ended up as a charred, blackened disaster.

Ingredients:

2 eggs

1/4 cup of what used to be butter

Instructions:

Crack the eggs, but don't overbeat them, or you'll end up with scrambled eggs.

Try not to set the fire, but it's probably too late already.

The Forgotten Frittata

This frittata was supposed to be a breakfast staple, but it ended up as a burnt, rubbery brick.

Ingredients:

6 eggs

1 cup of cheese

Instructions:

Crack the eggs, but don't forget where you put the pan.

Try to cook it until it's set, but it's probably too late already.
