A Day in My Life 8: Making Spaghetti for Dinner

It's seven o'clock, and I'm hungry.

7點了，我肚子好餓。

Tonight, I'm making spaghetti with tomato sauce!

今天晚上我要做茄汁義大利麵！

First, I wash my hands.

首先，我先把手洗乾淨。

I fill a big pot with water.

我拿一個大鍋子裝滿水。

I put it on the stove and add some salt.

我把鍋子放到爐子上，再加一點鹽。

Now I wait for the water to boil.

現在就等水滾。

While I'm waiting, I chop an onion.

趁等的時候，我來切一顆洋蔥。

Oh, my eyes! Onions always make me cry.

哎唷，我的眼睛！切洋蔥每次都讓我流眼淚。

Then I cut the tomatoes into small pieces.

接著我把番茄切成小塊。

I heat some oil in a frying pan.

我在平底鍋裡熱一點油。

I cook the onion until it's soft.

我把洋蔥炒到變軟。

Then I add the tomatoes and stir.

然後加入番茄，攪拌一下。

Mmm, my kitchen smells amazing!

嗯～廚房好香喔！

Look, the water is boiling!

你們看，水滾了！

I put the spaghetti into the pot.

我把義大利麵放進鍋子裡。

It cooks for about ten minutes.

大概要煮10分鐘。

I stir it, so it doesn't stick.

我攪拌一下，才不會黏在一起。

I taste one piece. Ouch, it's hot!

我吃一根看看。哎唷，好燙！

But it's perfect. Not too hard, not too soft.

但是煮得剛剛好。不會太硬，也不會太軟。

I drain the water and add the sauce.

我把水瀝掉，再加入醬汁。

Dinner is ready!

晚餐做好囉！

I put some cheese on top.

我在上面撒一點起司。

It's not a restaurant, but it's delicious.

雖然不是餐廳做的，但是超好吃。

And there's enough for lunch tomorrow!

而且還夠明天當午餐！
