Apologies if this should be at home in the lounge -the cookery advice there looked hardcore.
I was looking for some meal ideas for a story. It's an intergalactic cookery book, and the story has a food critic inhabiting people's imaginations around the globe. I'm reasonably ok with northwest Europe, but after that am mostly relying on research; and I reckon first hand knowledge always trumps. The idea is that the meals would be simple enough for a reader to put together with fairly universal foodstuffs (or as close as possible). I'd love for it to be a broad span picked up by a creature who has no knowledge of cultures or politics, so just jumps around the physical places where humans live. Just the name of something would be good (Eg. 'Boxty'), all advice appreciated.
