The famous American sitcom ‘F.R.I.E.N.D.S’ ended years ago, but it still reigns the hearts of our generation. Many of us connect with the characters and their stories like our own. This is why even after all these years, the cast members are celebrated for their iconic roles in the show. Each character has its own quirks and nuances; don’t we all wholeheartedly relate to Joey when he says, 'Joey doesn't share food'! Or have we not drooled over chef Monica Gellar’s Thanksgiving treats? Played by Courtney Cox, Monica has been one of the most loved characters the actor has played. This is exactly why people see her more as Monica than Courtney whenever she appears on our social media.
Imagine the excitement on seeing her dishing out mouth-watering delicacies in the kitchen in real life. That is exactly what happened when the actress, who has more than 12 million followers on Instagram, shared a video of her trying to make pizza for the first time. While contrary to her role on the show of a perfectionist she is when it comes to cooking, Courtney isn't the best performer in the kitchen in real life. In fact, her cooking videos are as messy and funny as any of us might be. So, her latest video is making us laugh and relate at the same time. Take a look:
The video begins with the actress announcing it’s the first time she’s trying to make a pizza and then continues to say “I don’t know what I’m doing”! What follows is a haywire pizza-making session wherein the pizza base isn’t round, the pizza starts to burn and so much more. We don’t know about the pizza, but the pizza video is too relatable!
Here is the full recipe that Courtney gave:
Starting off by rolling the dough into a thin base, Courtney pinches the sides to create a barrier on the edges. She tops it with a good amount of marinara/pizza sauce and oodles of grated cheese. The actress then adds caramelised onions, mushrooms and pepperoni to the pizza and leaves it in a fire oven for 2-3 minutes. Courtney then simply slices the pizza and offers it to her crew, who seems to be not very interested! The comments section, however, was filled with her fans and followers loving the video and her effort. Most of them were reminded of Monica as comments like “Because you are Monica” and “My monica ever” were seen.
