Start to learnLLearning Cooking as for weekend family events in my family
I started to learn cooking from my wife because in order to help my wife to cook, though only on weekends. However (comma), I rarely cook as usually, I don't have the elementaly cooking knowledge of cooking.I was taught by my wife who explained recipes in detail each time I asked from beginning to end. Especially, For example, I cooked miso soup, pork cutlet, and stir-fried bean sprouts. I don't know whether I was able to help my wife, but it was enjoyable and so I will study cooking more often to help my wife from now on!

こじさん、頑張りましょう!料理するのが楽しいですよ!I do most of the cooking at my house.
* "weekend events" or "a weekend activity"? Weekend events means cooking for parties or other special events. "Weekend activity" means that you do it mainly for your family as a fun project.
** "in order to" = 「・・・のために・・・」or「・・・ように・・・」. It means "I did this for the purpose of . . ."
*** A more natural way to say this is "However, I don't normally do any cooking, so . . ." "Rarely" is a good word, and you used it correctly. But it isn't necessary because "rarely" is implied by "I don't normally. . ."
**** Be careful with your Rs and Ls. "Elementary" is a good word. We use it for 小学校, but it also means "basic" or "simple" (Like Sherlock Holmes always said: "Elementary, dear Watson!")
***** I think I understand what you meant. But perhaps you meant "I didn't realize that helping my wife could be so enjoyable."
