If by cooking you are thinking of heating food to change its character and flavor, it began with the discovery and use of fire.
We have evidence of the use - controlled use - of fire by humans at least 400,000 years ago, but the earliest evidence of humans using fire goes back around two million years, though there is debate on this.
We don't know where the use of fire began, and are unlikely ever to pinpoint a time and place: we'd be digging into the earth's top layer for many millennia before any real clues turn up. If they ever do so.
