To tell boyfriend that he can't cook?

[BellyAching]

Been seeing someone who prides himself on his cooking and baking. He's constantly wanting me to go around for dinner but he's a terrible cook and doesn't realise it.
A few weeks ago he said he was cooking korma. He'd bought a korma kit online and added a WHOLE tub of butter to it thinking it would make it creamier. It was vile and inedible. I told him after one mouthful that I couldn't eat it due to the butter and he was all offended and upset but the recipe had called for something like 25g. I asked why he'd gone against the recipe only for him to say all good cooks experiment! Another time he'd make chilli but added a whole bar of chocolate to it instead of the one square the recipe had called for. It tasted like vomit and again I couldn't eat it and he said I was being awkward on purpose. He brought some homemade flap jacks around for me and they had so much sugar in them my teeth hurt and as you bit into them you could feel the sugar crunching!

Tonight he has invited me around for fish pie but I'm dreading it and feel like I should tell him his cooking isn't good. I almost don't want to go as I'm sick of going hungry every night as he's incapable of following recipes. AIBU to tell him straight that his cooking sucks?

P.s I often wonder if she's got a tastebud/palate disorder of some sort. There she is, beaming away at her prowess as a chef while everyone else is pushing her poorly cooked offerings around their plates and trying to avoid having to eat it.

how can you experiment with something youre cooking for the first time?? you make it once from the recipe and change it to your tastes from your tasting

if he makes fish pie then he is to follow the recipe, if he experiments and its horrible then he pays for takeaway

Other than being a bad cook, you don't mention what other qualities he has, is he a good boyfriend? If he is worth the effort I would tell him as nicely as possible that he is is a rubbish cook and offer to cook together (following recipes in a book or website), if he is a rubbish boyfriend then I would dump him and move on.

OP did you eat the fish pie ?

Not sure his other qualities are brilliant tbh saying your being difficult is rude....Id tell him his crap, wish I'd told my ex before I ate his pasta with mayo raw chunky onion and garlic 😭 my eyes actually watered it was so bad. Me and my current be OH are totally upfront about if the foods bad, the one who fs up generally makes toast or a snack or breakfast the next morning. Bad food happens occasionally....bar any of that go to cooking classes together if he decides to go off menu at least a professional will tell him it's bad x
