    So I have garlic bread, but I don’t have an oven. Reckon it’ll cook up alright in a frying pan?

          Bread is easy to do in a pan. I once had a very small kitchen and tried to do one-person meals with a single pan and minimal prep or washing up.

          I would cook a few fried eggs then push them over to the side (moving that half of the pan a little off the flame) and fry the unbuttered bread on the open part directly over the heat. Toasting the bread like that soaked up the leftover oil from the eggs for easy cleanup and kept everything warm. Cheese is a good addition, but salt and pepper (and maybe dead horse) is enough.

          You can also microwave a potato til soft and roughly chop it up. Serve with butter and seasonings (salt, pepper, and paprika), or a little tin of tuna drained of oil. Or fry the pre-zapped pieces to brown them and push them to the side to do some eggs.

          If you’re careful you can cut and stir/flip with only a fork, season the food in the pan or bowl, and eat straight from what it was cooked in. Leaving you to wash only one pan and one fork.

      If you have the budget, I recommend you get yourself an air fryer. I know that doesn’t really help you with your present problem. I don’t know whether you can cook it up in a frying pan. I’ve always had access to an oven.

      You can probably cook it up in a Microwave, but take it out of the foil first.

        We have an air fryer at home, but I’ll only be here for 2 weeks at most, so it doesn’t seem worth it to buy for one I won’t need for very long.

        And these are also ones, so they spare all expenses. No foil provided

      Should be ok. Separate all pieces first and if you can put more butter or oil on each piece, that would make it better. Low to medium heat.

      They are always scabby on the butter.
