Often it’s more accurate to measure out the ingredients by weight, but you only have measuring cups or spoons available. Also, some conversions between imperial and metric have me baffled …
I found this nice table in an e-book recently – hope it’s useful for you!

1 teaspoon = 5 ml = 10g |
|
1 tablespoon = 3 teaspoons = 15 ml = 20g |
|
1 pound = 2 cups = 450g |
|
1 oz = 1 1/2 tablespoons = 30g = 30 ml |
|
1/4 cup = 4 tablespoons = 60 ml |
|
1/2 cups = 8 tablespoons = 125 ml |
|
1 cup = 16 tablespoons = 1/2 pint |
|
1 cup flour = 140g |
|
1 cup sugar = 200g |
|
1 cup liquid = 250 ml |
|
1 cup dried fruit/nuts = 150g |
|
1 cup rolled oats = 120g |
