You should have cooked by yourself. Without by , the sentence means that he himself should have been the meal! Late can be used to describe something that occurs after the proper or expected time.

shravanmmYou should have cooked yourself or you should have cooked by yourself. Here are both the sentences o.k?
Yes they are.

The first means that 'you', rather than anyone else, should have done the cooking.
The second means that you should have done the cooking without the assistance of anybody else.
