Basic cooking.
You don't need to be Gordon Ramsey, but in a pinch, know how to make pasta, chilli and a few other things.
Is chilli considered basic? Spicy food is not that common where I live. For me the basics would be to know how to:
-Peel and cut veggies
-Boil stuff
-Fry eggs
But maybe it's a cultural thing! I'm interested in knowing what you're doing with your chilli peppers ;)
I think they mean Chilli as a dish, often a meat stew
Basic chili recipe (people from texas can bite their tongue for five minutes one time):
A little bit of cumin and salt to taste and you actually don’t need anything else to get something that is recognizable as chili.
I add all sorts of other stuff, but that’s the basics.
Beans?!!

Oh i meant chili as in American chili. Beans and ground beef.
Basically, just knowing how to make something easy for a quick meal if you need to.
I'll just say I am lucky enough to have been the child in my family who learned to cook from my mom, but I can certainly agree people should know at least the basics.
