Joel Madden wants his own cooking show.

The Good Charlotte rocker - who is expecting his second child with girlfriend Nicole Richie - thinks the average person could learn a lot from his "damn good" food preparation skills.

Writing on his Twitter account, the 30-year-old star said: "I should have a cooking show, or at least a cook book. I'm a damn good cook. I should have my own restaurant."

But just minutes later, Joel's culinary abilities failed him as he prepared lunch for his 17-month-old daughter Harlow.

He wrote: "Made lunch for Harlow and burned my finger real bad!"

If Joel gets his way, he will be very busy in the next few months.

In July, he revealed his plans to write a "meaningful" memoir.

Describing the tome, the star said: "It would be about my life. It would be about, mostly, the big changes in my life - kids, relationships, moving to Los Angeles - that I've gone through.

"I'm lightly working on one, but I don't want to put a book out there if it's not actually meaningful. I'm not going to go there unless I can deliver. If I put a book out, I want it to be something that matters to me. I want every page to mean something."
