I mean there are some simple things you can try, with various easy recipes out there, a meatloaf, a roasted chicken. They're pretty simple, and while over cooking a little isn't great, it won't ruin anything. If you're worried about done, buy an oven thermometer.

Oh yeah, in the beginning, you'll probably screw up, but it'll still be edible, and then you learn where yo uscrewed up. Start simple, build your way up, it's the same as learning anything, you start at the beignning

Quick Amazon came up with this book which is well praised by lots of people, maybe check it out.
